But nobody actually earns min-wage, so here are some Stats what people were actually earning.

>Total, gross hourly earnings (1974) by Industry:

>Manufracturing: $4.41/hour

>Mining: $5.21/hour

>Contract construction: $6.75/hour

>Transportation and public utilities: $5.43/hour

>Wholesale trade: $4.49/hour

Using the previous metric we can calculate what those people should be earning today:

>Manufracturing: $58.06/hour

>Mining: $68.59/hour

>Contract construction: $88.86/hour

>Transportation and public utilities: $71.49/hour

>Wholesale trade: $59.11/hour

Keep in mind we are talking about NON-SUPERVISORY employees here, e.g. for Construction sites it's the Mexican worker-grunts, not the guy giving orders.

So tell me, can some random lad who didn't even finish his highschool diploma go to a random construction site, give the Boss-man a firm handshake and start working the next day for $88.86/hour?

No? Because that was the reality boomers were living in 1974.
