Wages in US – 50% make less than $28,031 a year

The Social Security Administration has just released wage statistics for 2013, and the numbers are startling.  Wages in USLast year, 50 percent of all American workers made less than $28,031, and 39 percent of all American workers made less than $20,000.  If you worked a full-time job at $10 an hour all year long with two weeks off, you would make $20,000.  So the fact that 39 percent of all workers made less than that amount is rather telling.  This is more evidence of the declining quality of the jobs in this country.
