Campus Bookstore

A huge ponzi scheme found on every college campus meant to harvest every last dollar from students as it can.

Derived from Potemkin village: a village that is just a facade. Just for show. Enter any door and it turns out to be hollow. Totalitarians and dictator types tend to build these in order to impress their oppressed masses or convince the outside that they are a salubrious nation when they are not.
