There is only one area of agreement in this debate—that the existing poverty, employment, and earnings statistics are inadequate for one their primary applications, measuring the consequences of labor market problems.

one their primary applications，什么意思？？好像不对啊！！是否应该是one of their primary applications？？

hundres of thousands 100*1,000 = 100,000 数百K或者说数十万

tens of millions 10*1,000,000 = 10,000,000 数十M或者数千万

xealot

one their primary applications

和one of their primary applications差不多

Among the millions with hourly earnings at or below the minimum wage level, the overwhelming majority are from multiple-earner, relatively affluent families. Most of those counted by the poverty statistics are elderly or handicapped or have family responsibilities which keep them out of the labor force T7: overprediction是因为财富增加，家里有多人工作，失业者有第二职业(这和T7-B说任何人有多于一份职业是不同的)),

这个地方什么时候说失业者有第二职业了？我觉得multiple-earner 就是说的家里有多人工作吧？请教weiyu. Thanks

secondary-earner: family earners other than the family head. Similar to multiple-earners. It has no meaning of someone who has 2 jobs.
