Anyone guilty of wage theft getting hit by that law?

Just saying, in practice its clearly not about jailing menaces to society.

Do you know of anyone that’s been convicted of wage theft, sent to prison, convicted of a new count of wage theft, sent to prison, and convicted of a new count of wage theft

… or did you just want to flog your hobbyhorse regardless of how poor the fit was?

Of course not, their whole point was that nobody gets prosecuted for wage theft despite it being common.
>wage theft despite it being common.

Worse than being common, I heard US wage theft eclipses all other theft in the US combined.

That is, funnily enough, precisely the point.
