The restrictions on the sample producing this statistic are bizarre. Why the carefully selected age group leaving out the twenty-somethings and fifty-somethings? And what the heck does “income adjusted for household size and scaled to reflect a three-person household” mean?
If they’re going to scale it, how about an adjustement for average hours worked?
What’s happening to the men? Maybe we need affirmative action.
Interesting idea Joe. Probably wouldn’t work for men generally. But for sure we need it for single men. Where do I go to ask for my raise?
This paints a very different picture than an earlier post on how awful life is for single women.
