But feel free to keep spinning.

Debunked just like your five trillion dollar claim about Mitt Romney.
1) Wasn't a non-partisan think tank, but two partisan liberal groups combined on this bogus study.
2) Covered a 10 year span, when most budgets are only one year.
3) And used a static model, instead of a dynamic that would show higher tax receipts with lower rates.

I really don't care if you believe it or not. I suppose you can go looking for your own set of "facts" on FauxNews, Breitbart, RedState or whatever... But if you don't want to believe the REAL facts, that's not my problem.

So, if it's a myth, and a lie...Why does the entire GOTP, and Mittens, refuse to support a "paycheck-fairness Act"? Are they afraid that men's checks might go down, or women's might go up?

Feel free to continue your spin... I'll file it next to the climate-change denials....

But now more women are graduating with college degrees than men, so inequality is moving in the right direction.

I just have never seen it. I am woman I have worked. You would think if it is that bad I would have run into it. i cannot imagine working somewhere and finding out that the guy next to me is making more. I would be mad but I have never seen that. I have seen men get the the more important jobs.

I used to work at an auto auction and it was all male auctioneers and the girls were all their assistants. they used to go out on the night before the auction and get the dealers drunk and invite the assistant girls (most of them were promiscuous) and that whole set up was pretty sexist. The dealers and buyers I had to deal with were sort of sexually harassing. I have seen that but that was 12-13 years ago. It does happen. But I have not seen women making 72% less for same work. So, I would like to know how they came up with that.

Which auction? I was small potatoes dealer and never got in on the girls and booze... but maybe we still know each other lol

Uh, oh. It was the big one.

I bought from there 1996 till 2010... at the time my company was called The Sharper Auto and had a partner. I'm sure I'd remember you, especially if you were in the sales dept. or titles. I won't ask anymore personal questions.

God, if you're an example of the GOP, heaven help us.

OK, if I accept your statement that more women than men are graduating from college... (and it's been that way since 1990)...



How does that fact have any bearing on what a woman MAKES when she's hired? Don't you understand that the beef is women and men of equal experience are not making the same salary? Men are paid more. It has nothing to do with graduation rates.

I make exactly what my male counterparts make.
