Depends on location, education (knowledge of tools, hardware software) & experience but roughly anywhere between, $11 and $25

somewhere between $0/hr and $20/hr. Location, office type, skill set, applicant desperation are all important factors.

35$ per hour for a draftsperson in LA? I call bullshit, unless the draftsperson is super experienced and can "draft" in Revit.

Take these salary reports with a grain of salt.  The ones for my city include multiple reports from people purporting to work in types and sizes of firms that do not even actually exist here. 

It may be that people change details in order to avoid being recognized, especially in smaller markets - perhaps they change their city to one that they assume is similar, and/or they change various details about themselves and the firms.  Unfortunately this can create misunderstandings and potentially unrealistic expectations.

There is no legal requirement for a private firm to provide health insurance.  A firm with 50 or more full time equivalents will incur tax penalties for not offering insurance - but may make the decision that this is less expensive than offering insurance.  A firm with fewer than 50 FTEs has no obligations re health insurance for employees.
