You call that "research"? You obviously don't know the meaning of the word. Just visualize raising a family on $43K per year. Yes, give it a try. Now I'll give you a tip: the $43K people are not the ones moving this economy. They are barely surviving. Maybe this is a living wage in Nebraska or Wyoming but not in any of the major population centers. Snap out of it my friend, this is a nice statistic to make you and most of us in this great country feel that we are doing better that the "average" guy. I mean if the average family makes $43K and yours makes $100K, you gotta feel real good relatively speaking. In a way it's similar to the government numbers we are being served on inflation. They have been serving us 2-3% numbers for several years now but some of us know better. My advice to you is use and believe this kind of information at your own perril. Oh, and if you really want to find who the "retard" is start searching for a mirror.
