I have to wonder how badly the stats here are distorted by the fact that the hospitality sector is one of the worst offenders in terms of paying wages 'under the table'. Many folks in that sector formally report abysmally low wages on tax returns but are making decent day to day wages paid from off-the-books cash flow.
