This chart is dynamic so you can play around with the values by dragging the sliders. If someone wants to author an introduction and explanation for this chart and/or suggest additions or enhancements I'd be happy to make it a regular part of the site.

NICE!!!!!!! Make it part of the site. Put it on the main page.
Just like I figured earlyer this month, I make 16 dollars an hour. Maby, you could put overtime on with that, for the regular pay. Ex. guys working 50 hours a week at 10 dollars an hour could see how the 10 extra hours at 15$ factor in.
Nice Job!
