In 1917, a laborer's earnings varied depending on location and type of work, but on average, a skilled laborer in the United States might earn between $2 to $3 per day. This was during World War I, which influenced labor demand and wages, particularly in industries related to the war effort. In the UK, wages for laborers were similarly low, with many earning around 25 to 30 shillings per week. Overall, economic conditions and inflation were significantly impacting wages during this time.
