Why wouldn’t they get the same pay men get, if they were worth it, ceteris paribus?
Dear, not Only mostly nice guys, but even the Marines seem to have difficulty finding, a few Good women.
Why indeed. But is happens far more often than the reverse does.
And as for your qualifier of "if they were worth it", if they are doing the same work then they are worth the same pay.
The bottom line disagrees with you; why are you being so
infidel,
protestant, and
renegade to True Capitalism?
Using only the "bottom line" as your measure, would remove all safety regulations, overtime pay, and age limits for dangerous work. You have but to look at the history of industry to see that the pure capitalism is only good for those at the top. I have no problem with those at the top making good money. I just have a problem with two people being paid a different scale because of gender, when that gender difference has no effect on productivity.
Another thing about pure capitalism, those at the top take a chance with THEIR Money and create a service or product that people are willing to buy. When a person with much success, finds that he needs to make his company larger, then he employs other people to come work for him, paid fairly for a fair days work. At one time, people could take home all their wages, then at the end of the year, the TAX man would come and get the governments DUE. So someone who would make $100,000 would keep all of his money till the end of the year then cough up about $7,000. Then those raskly liberals inserted the insidious income tax withheld and when people would be making the same amount, the tax would be increased in the monthly take
If it is a situation, like tennis, where the women pros do not bring in the same kind of money as the men pros, then I can understand they would make less. However, in an office type of setting, two workers who are doing the same job or a man and a woman in a management position, unless one has a poor record, they should be making the same amount of money. That is what I am talking about when I say "equal" pay.
Except for Obama and Bill Clinton's wife were are allowed to under pay women? You vote liberal, you get a WAR ON WOMEN, whether in pay or abuse. That is the liberal way.
