As we noted above, Texas does have a larger share of its population earning the federal minimum wage or less than any state but Idaho, but it helps that things are cheap.

How do you earn less than the federal minimum wage? Are they including prisoners in this stat?

Do they include the farm population in their wage numbers?

Did they figure in the size of the state or the average age of workers?

I don’t know. Even waiters and waitresses have their own minimum wage, albeit lower than the standard one.
