GTA 6 发售或致美国经济损失预测

An economics professor projects that 1.5 million Americans will call in sick on November 19 to play Grand Theft Auto 6, costing roughly $1 billion if each worker earns $70,000 a year. That money isn't lost from the economy so much as shifted to publisher Take-Two Interactive, which is estimated to earn the same amount that day. The figure is an academic projection, not an official forecast, though a similar phenomenon followed Grand Theft Auto 5's 2013 launch.
