In 1850, Natchez had over 500 millionaires, half the millionaires in America.

If you want to compare the value of a $1,000,000.00 Project in 1850 there are four choices. In 2014 the relative:
historic opportunity cost of that project is $22,500,000.00
labor cost of that project is $223,000,000.00 (using the unskilled wage) or $482,000,000.00 (using production worker compensation)
economy cost of that project is $6,750,000,000.00
