Forbes does this range of surveys every year and their title line is intended to draw in readership. Just part of the marketing seasons, like next year's cars being introduced in September. It's doubtful Hawaii is the worst place to make a living, there are a lot of service jobs available, government, construction, entertainment. It's really hard to believe that trying to make a living in some place like Wyoming is better. If your living isn't from farming and ranching, there doesn't seem like many other options. Making a living seems secondary to staying alive through a winter. Good, hopefully people will read these types of articles and throw up their hands in despair to ever live in Hawaii. We need to thin the population. Why aren't there surveys titled "Hawaii ranked best state to not make a living"?
"Aloha also means goodbye. Aloha!"
