Happens a lot more often than most people realize, especially in
consulting practices.

I guess that you are right.

You are confusing worker cost with worker wages, they are not the same
thing. Worker cost includes benefits, workers comp and unemployment
insurance costs, various taxes and other costs that are not part of
worker wages. That $65/hr average worker cost likely equates to and
average wage of $30/hr and that average is also likely very misleading
with the bulk of the workers probably making $10/hr and a small number
making $30/hr or similar.
