Currently, under the Fair Labor Standards Act, a certified “sheltered workshop” can pay disabled Americans less than the minimum wage—sometimes as little as pennies per hour.

[Information from this site may not be reliable.]Gary Galles: Not understanding how politics works will prove to be much more harmful than ignorance about how markets work.
