The numbers are easy to nail down.
The average is what it is. Maybe you don't understand what the "average" is? I don't know about you, but I think I learned that in around 6th grade.
Are you trying to re-write mathematics ?
I know blue collar workers who make $80,000 /yr + benefits.
Believe what you want to believe.
That's the problem with the Government, too many people believe what they want to believe and base their decisions on their belief rather than the facts.
