it is interesting to note that pilots ranked the highest paid workforce in the US with hourly earnings of $107.22 and an average working week of just 21.9 hours.

That figure sounds that they have an easy life, but translates to what would be the legal maximum block hours a year. You imply they are underworked whereas that is not the case - I look at the figure and see that they are being worked pretty hard.
True working week would be about double the figure quoted, perhaps more for a shorthaul operation, as your source only states the block hours rather than working hours (Pilots are generally only paid from pushback to on the gate, unlike almost every other part of society).
There are lies, damn lies, and spreadsheets.
