Does that include the value of the benefits? That's pretty common tactic for corporations to get the public on their side when they want to paint workers as greedy.

People are always so greedy. Its such an overused word I hardly know what it means.

No, the average hourly wage was $26/hour, not including any fringes.

Re: US sets tariffs for Chinese solar cells

This whole thread reminds me of the recent insourcing thread we had.. So the news for 2012 was a minor solar panel tariff, the collapse of Solyndra and sale of A123 to the Chinese?... Good job Obama.

Other interesting things about 2012 is the increasing availability of $20-$30 home lighting LED bulbs at common everyday places such as Home Depot and Wally World, they used to be $60-$70 not too long ago. Lets not forget the flood of electrics and hybrids..
