Re:Medical School at $278,000 Means Even Bernanke Son Has Debt by pyre on Saturday April 13, 2013 @07:28PM (#5545107)
$45k/year and working 80 hours per week works out to $10.82/hour. This may be where the 'minimum wage' figure comes from. I feel like talking about them working for "minimum wage" implies that their yearly salary is much lower than $45k+ per year, which is a bit disingenuous.

That's pretty much where the minimum wage comment comes from. I admit that it is a bit hyperbolic, but they are still ridiculously overworked and underpaid.
