11. Red Head, that's about $40K a year. As the boomers begin to need

assisted care and more of them need home help we will see more of the poor elderly hiring at low wages. The poverty of the elderly will necessarily drive the wage down. This bodes very badly for those hiring unqualified and untrained people to help them. I see some major increase in abuse of the elderly coming up soon.
