The Biggest Con Ever?
Written by Brian Garst, Posted in Economics & the Economy

You know a con artist has done the job right when the victim trips all over himself to hand the money over, then thanks the perpetrator for the opportunity. The United States government has just pulled off what is quite possibly the greatest con in history.
