Proof Employers don't pay their employees what they're worth.

[Slyhunter]

Men's soccer league has a revenue of 49 million and they pay their players a minimum wage of 50k a year.
Women's soccer league has a revenue of 51 million and they pay their players a minimum wage of 16k a year.

Pay Disparity in U.S. Soccer? It’s Complicated

I bet the problem is that men won't put up with that shit and go out on strike while women don't want to make waves and don't fight for their just desserts.

But regardless to the reason of the disparity, the ultimate disparity is employers are cheap and won't pay their people more than they absolutely have to, to keep them fully staffed. It's not based on revenue of the company or how much money their employees make them. It's based on how easy it is to replace them with someone cheaper.

Don't like what yer paid?

Well then, hand a shingle out & good luck

Revenue should not be confused with adjusted net income. So what did these clubs actually earn before paying wages? Are the stadiums full? It is a unfortunate fact womens sports do not have the fan based appeal mens sports have. Go to a WNBA game some day.

Women's soccer made more money than men's soccer did. That means they have the bigger fan base willing to buy their shit and sit in their stadiums.

Americans are sexist for not going to see women play soccer, film @ 11!!!

That is what happens when you win. The women's team is a consistent winner, the men celebrate if they win a game

Women should identify as men and start getting paid in the men’s league

Yet together they made 98 million dollars.

They won because they were playing other women.

The NBA gets paid more than WNBA because more people watch it.

But as many PAYING people watch women soccer as watch mens soccer. They both made about the same in revenue. And that is what matters.

Here are the TV ratings numbers proving the U.S. women's national soccer team is underpaid
The complaint will allege that the women's team is earning as little as 40% of what men take in despite serving as the driving force for the federation.

• 
  
  • In 2011, the women's world cup final ranked as the most-viewed soccer telecast (regardless of gender) ever on ESPN; the sixth-most viewed soccer telecast ever on a single network (also, regardless of gender); and the second-most viewed daytime program in the history of cable television. It drew a 7.4 U.S. rating and 13.458 million viewers.
  • In 2012, the U.S.-Canada women's Olympic semifinal contributed the then- single most-viewed half-hour of the Olympics on NBCSN.
  • Three days later, the U.S.-Japan gold medal match drew 4.350 million viewers on NBC Sports Network, the largest audience in the history of that network. The previous record was the 2010 Stanley Cup hockey final.

Last year's Women's World Cup, in which the U.S. triumphed over Japan, saw the biggest numbers ever for the women's game, and offered some striking comparisons to men's sports.

• 
  
  • Early-round matches each had at least 3-million viewers, ranking them in the top-10 most-watched women's games ever . One match against Nigeria, which was broadcast against the NBA Finals and America's Got Talent, still netted 5 million viewers.
  • The semi-final against Germany notched 8.4 million viewers, giving it the largest audience ever for a World Cup semifinal on a single network, regardless of gender.
  • And the final was the most-watched soccer telecast ever in the U.S., with a total of 26.7 million viewers. That topped the previous record of 26.5 million for the 2014 Men's World Cup Final. The previous high for a women’s match was the 18 million for the 1999 final.

Finally, an Olympic qualifying match against Trinidad and Tobago just last month broke the record the women's game had already set for NBCSN, bringing in 329,000 viewers.

“The numbers speak for themselves,” goalie Hope Solo said in a statement. “We are the best in the world, have three World Cup championships, four Olympic championships and the USMNT get paid more to just show up than we get paid to win major championships.”

More people watch women soccer then men's soccer.

Why do Leftists never understand simple economics when it comes to employment (or anything else)?

Businesses spend as little as they can in order to get the goods and services they need. This principle applies to lumber, raw materials, services, professional services, utilities, fuel, and so forth.

If you own a "professional" women's soccer team, you will pay whatever is necessary to field a competitive team. If they paid Minimum Wage, they would get a shitload of players willing to play, but the "best" players would opt out. So they increase it incrementally until they reach a level that captures the players they want.

The only time REVENUE is relevant is when the aggregate players salaries are too high for profitability with the aforementioned $51 million in revenue. But they are nowhere near that point now.

Bottom line: if these players think they can make more money elsewhere, they should go there, make the money, and STFU.

You people can't make up your mind whether I'm a liberal or a heartless asshole righty. Make up your damn minds. With automation automating all jobs there are going to be a lot of people who will either starve or get handouts from the government or the very same employers who automated them out of jobs. Soon we'll have robots playing soccer so we don't have to pay humans at all.

When people bring up the topic of what an employee is worth, I tell them it's rather simple: You are only worth as much as the person your employer can replace you with.

If you leave your job at $15.00 because you didn't get a raise, and your employer hires somebody that does just as good as work as you did for the same wage, then you were paid what you were worth. If he has to pay somebody $17.00 an hour to replace you, then you were correct, you were underpaid. If he can find people to do your job for $12.00 an hour, you were overpaid.

If that sustains itself, the free market will necessarily adjust.
