that traveling nurse who makes $100 - there's a good chance they have been classified as an "independent contractor" and that $100 dollars an hour has to cover all their expenses plus the employer part of SSN and Medicaid. They probably aren't paid for the travel time, only time with the patient, and are they actually being paid $100/hr for a 40 hour week? Dollars/hour doesn't mean $hit without context and full information.
