Could the income difference between "Completed Elementary School" and "Some secondary/high school" be attributed to a generational quirk? I might guess that the Elementary School cohort are older and from a generation that worked more years and were more "trades" oriented. The High School cohort might skew younger and had gravitated to a more service industry orientation in their work.

That's possible. And technically I could possibly slice and dice the data enough to get a fairly clear answer. But my suspicion is that there won't be nearly enough survey respondents from a generation old enough to have moved so quickly into trades.
