Union Math: Where All Children Are Above Average

From the CtW blog:

The study finds that only one in four jobs in America can be described as "good jobs" -- where good jobs is defined as a job that offers health insurance, a retirement plan, and that pays at least an amount in inflation-adjusted dollars equal to the median male worker's wage in 1979 (!). (Nearly a third -- 29% -- of workers surveyed hold jobs that meet none of these three criteria.)

I wonder what the relevant figure was in 1979. I guarantee that it was below half, because _by definition_ half of the male worker's population is below the median,and women's wages are lower than men's.

If you're trying to pull up the percentage of people who are below the median income, you're going to have a tough time with that one.
