"..."bad," meaning they paid less than the median wage in 1979, adjusted for inflation, and had neither employer-sponsored health insurance nor a retirement plan. That translates to a wage today of $16.50 an hour or $34,320 per year for a full-time, full-year worker..."

As I said in another thread a while back, $16.50/hr is good in many parts. The health insurance part can get you though.
