老克,將中國的農民工和美國最低工資者相比是不恰當的。
送交者: 直言 2011年04月16日22:12:48 於 [五 味 齋] 發送悄悄話

據官方統計,中國農民人數占中國人口總數是56%。而進城打工的農民工在農民整體中應該是收入較高一族吧?

美國賺最低工資者是美國人中收入最低的,其人數占美國人口多少聶?其比例是區區2.5%,而且不是美國總人口,而是美國賺小時工資總人數的比例。

Around 2.5% of all workers earning an hourly wage, earn minimum wage.

According to the U.S. Department of Labor, the median annual income of a U.S. worker is $32,140. Federal minimum wage is currently $5.85 an hour, or about $11,500 per year — just above the poverty line. Of the 76.5 million people paid by the hour in the United States in 2006, 2.2% make minimum wage or less. Here are some generalizations we can make about minimum wage workers:

  • Most minimum wage earners are young. While 2.2% of all hourly workers earn minimum wage or less, just 1.4% of workers over the age of 25 are paid at or below the Federal minimum wage. More than half (51.2%) of minimum wage workers are between 16 and 24 years old. Another 21.2% are between 25 and 34.
  • Most minimum wage earners work in food service. Nearly two-thirds of those paid minimum wage (or less) are food service workers. Many of these people receive supplemental income in the form of tips, which the government does not track.
  • Most minimum wage earners never attended college. Just 1.2% of college graduates are paid the minimum wage. If you only have a high school degree, you’re more likely (1.9%) to be paid minimum wage. Those without a high school degree are nearly three times as likely (3.7%) to earn minimum wage. 59.8% of all minimum wage workers have no advanced education.
  • Finally, as you might expect, part-time workers are five times more likely to be paid the minimum wage than full-time workers.

也就是說,儂是將占中國人口總數56%的人(農民)與占美國總人口遠遠不到2.5%的人作比較。

蘋果與桔子之比啊。
