Equal effort/results=equal pay.
Can I ask a stupid question?
It’s already illegal to pay a woman less for the same job as a man.
It’s been against the law to pay women less, going all the way back to the Equal Pay Act of 1963.
Considering that, why do liberals such as Obama and Hillary keep bitching about women being paid less than a man?
Considering that the law is already in place, if women were systematically being paid less, then Obama and Loretta Lynch, and Hillary if she’s the next president, have all the legal tools at their disposal to fight this alleged discrimination.
What has Obama done about this problem in his presidency?
Heck, let’s ask Hillary what she and Bill did about this issue when they were president before, if this is such a major pressing issue in our economy????
Are women paid less because of illegal discrimination?
Or do women, as a group, earn less, because as a group, women are still found in lower paying jobs, or because they get off the career track for a time to deal with having children and taking care of family matters?
Is it possible that there are women who intentionally choose to be in lower paying jobs or careers, because those jobs have more flexibility to allow them to take care of their families??
But, it seems we are not allowed to ask such questions in this politically correct age. We are supposed to accept the mantra that “woman are paid less than men”, and that it’s due to the bigoted society we live in.
One would think that anyone with the same job title and job dewscription would receive equal pay. And that is true in a Union. However, in the real world that is not necessarily true. There are two other factors to take into consideration when comparing compensation. One is longevity and the other is any performance increases received in the past for exceptional work done. That goes regardless of gender. A person on the job for 10 or 15 years should receive more than someone on the job for a year, even if the job description remains the same.
