One in twenty hourly-paid jobs. But hourly-paid jobs represent only 59.1% of all jobs. So it's actually only 3.1% of jobs that pay (Federal) minimum wage.

- jfoutz 14y agoI'd like to see your math. http://data.bls.gov/timeseries/LNS11300000 http://data.bls.gov/timeseries/LNS11300000 says 64 million at the end of 2011, 3.8M/64M = 5.9% No? I might have mis googled those statistics though.
