老克,将中国的农民工和美国最低工资者相比是不恰当的。
送交者: 直言 2011年04月16日22:12:48 于 [五 味 斋] 发送悄悄话

据官方统计,中国农民人数占中国人口总数是56%。而进城打工的农民工在农民整体中应该是收入较高一族吧?

美国赚最低工资者是美国人中收入最低的,其人数占美国人口多少聂?其比例是区区2.5%,而且不是美国总人口,而是美国赚小时工资总人数的比例。

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.

也就是说,侬是将占中国人口总数56%的人(农民)与占美国总人口远远不到2.5%的人作比较。

苹果与桔子之比啊。
