"the greatest scam ever written - how a Montreal copywriter swindled victims out of $200 million by pretending to be a legendary psychic"
that's nothing, federal minimum wage adjusted for inflation is somewhere $8-12/h instead of the $7.25/h it is now. Assuming $10-$7 as a rough guestimate, $200 mil is 66666667 hours underpaid. There are about 1.6 million minimum wage workers in the USA - so that's about 42 hours per min wage worker, around a week or so of work. And that's just this year. And that's only some of the fiscal harm done by or in the wake of Reaganomics.
