Hey well your BS is a reality here regardless of what some site says. So I can’t help but wonder if those stats are skewed somehow because guys do make that here working in heavy manufacturing. $87K is Milwaukee Public School admin wages (one of the worst schools system in the US). Union barrel hwy guys make in the high $70Ks (plus benefits).
And you are using averages to make you case so that also is a stat which is not specific to any industry or manufacturing company.
