Most of the top paying jobs anywhere are advertised in industry journals or word of mouth. Unskilled workers can't expect to be paid much more and this has been known for decades as the world shrinks. Unskilled immigrants are arriving everywhere and illegal immigrants in the USA are all over, so people with little or no education haven't got very good prospects unless they can pull a rabbit out of the hat or start their own business.

The days of wharfies earning more than everyone else are over. A qualified carpenter in the USA earns $61,000 average, not bad, a plumber earns around $75,000, an aircraft engineer $100,000.

Goldbugs love to portray the USA as a place where 150,000,000 people work at McDonalds, my advice is get on an aircraft and go there and check it out.
