Workers earning the lowest wages will see their hourly pay increase to $22 from $20 an hour, while top earners will see their pay increase to $34.50 from $30.65. The electric vehicle maker will also “streamline” its wage levels; workers currently making between $26.20 and $30.65 per hour will see their pay adjusted to $34.50 an hour, according to CNBC.

And $34.50 means about $71,000 per year. For a career worker. Add in their commute time to and from the work site, which they don't get paid for even if they ride the company buses, that means $27.60. Rent for a decent place is around $2,000. Gas is around $5 per gallon, etc. That's not much.

Those places out at the Telsa, Amazon, and other places east of Sparks can't keep the lower paying workers because even the $22 really means $17.60 and they cannot afford to live.

I presume the so-called top workers are skilled, they need hire pay.
