Summary
Nevada workers are logging long hours—34.7 per week, ranking seventh nationally—but earning just $33.24 hourly, placing the state 35th in pay. Despite a recent minimum wage hike to $12/hour, many argue it’s still not keeping pace with rising costs, especially compared to high-paying states like D.C. While Louisiana leads in hours (36.3/week), Mississippi trails in pay ($28.98/hour), painting a complex picture of labor economics across the U.S. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
