And according to the Bureau of Labor (and some other sources) the median hourly wage in the US for non-supervisory (eg non-exempt) workers is around $34/hr.
The average (mean) is $36.67.
Of course these are heavily influenced by high COL areas, but if you lookup distributions, most people fall in the $24-$35 area of the curve, with only the 10th percentile making under $15. That suggests there aren't many jobs paying that kind of money (or the distribution would look different), and that 90% of jobs pay above $15, with 80% paying above $20.
