 A recent study by the Institute for Policy Innovation (IPI) reveals that Movie Piracy not only has a direct impact on the movie business, but that is also affect the US economy on a larger scale.
 
 The research is based on the outcome of the MPAA funded LEK study that revealed that the movie industry lost $1.3 billion in the US, and $6.1 billion worlwide.
 
 Based on these figures, the IPI concludes that Movies Pirates (online and offline) are responsible for:
 # $5.5 billion in lost annual earnings among U.S workers
 # 141,030 jobs lost
 # $837 million in lost annual tax revenue
 # $20.5 billion in lost annual output to all U.S. industries
