POLITICS: DNC uses celebrity women with collective net worth of $331 million to attack GOP on #EqualPay.

Should’ve used female staffers from the Obama White House. And Hillary’s office . . .
 
sadly the ZIV's (zero info voters) will not understand how they are being dumped on:rolleyes:

when AXED about why the WH and CUNT CLINTON pay the CUNTS less then the COCKS


the answer was THIS.....ASHE SCHOW: A yearly reminder that the gender wage gap is due to choice, not discrimination.

I don’t know how many times this myth has to be busted before people stop repeating it, but here we go again.

Washington Post fact checker Glenn Kessler has a great takedown of the myth, giving “two Pinocchios” to those who continue to push it as a means of telling women they’re perpetual victims of discrimination. One important factor that Kessler points out is that women often choose lower-paying fields. He includes two lists, the first showing that nine of the 10 highest-paying fields are dominated by men (the second highest-paying profession, pharmaceutical sciences, has slightly more women than men). The second list shows that nine of the 10 lowest-paying fields are dominated by women (theology and religious vocations has vastly more men than women).

Proponents of the wage-gap myth like to claim that the patriarchy pushes women into those less lucrative careers. That’s a sad commentary on their way of thinking — their notion that women are simply too dumb or weak to think for themselves and choose the career they actually want. I think the numbers show that women are choosing the careers they prefer but those careers just aren’t as lucrative as those chosen by men. There’s nothing wrong with that. Do what makes you happy.

Mark J. Perry of the conservative American Enterprise Institute has also taken apart the myth, showing that different lifestyle choices made by women contribute to the wage gap. For instance, married women and women with children tend to make less on average than men. Again, proponents say this is patriarchal discrimination that allows women to make as much as men only if they never marry or have children. I see no discrimination, only women choosing to work less or choosing more flexible careers that let them care for children.

Lisa Maatz, a spokeswoman for the American Association of University Women, confirmed my suspicion years ago. When asked how much of the gender-wage gap is due to discrimination, Maatz — whose organization is one of the biggest proponents of the myth — responded: “We’re still trying to figure that out.”

Translation: Despite decades of pushing this number, they still have no evidence that discrimination is the reason.

Evidence is a patriarchal construct of the patriarchy. Like math.
 
Yep, and the GOP is using the Koch brothers billions to dump n the Democrats.

Fuckin' hypocrite
 
Both major parties have wealthy donors, but that is not the point of this thread.

Other than BB's usual rant that no discrimination on Earth ever has or ever will occur except to white Christian and Jewish Males thus justifying more US military action in the middle east as Israels personal security force no matter the economic cost to America....

What is the point of this thread?

I think he's trying to make the point that Clinton is insincere when it comes to her concern for women's issues, including equal pay, which is totally true.

Unfortunately, using female public figures doesn't undermine that issue in an ad. A-list female actresses make less than their male counterparts, including their co-stars.

He'd be better off pointing out it shows she's out of touch.

It's not hard to make that point. Last cycle, you basically had Lena Dunham talk about how much she wants to fuck Barack Obama in a GOTV ad and the record shows the bitch barely votes and didn't vote in that particular election.

Actresses may or may not make less than their male co-stars, depending on the comparative marketability. Sofia Vergara, for instance, makes more than her co-star, Ed O'Neill.

Uh, no she doesn't. The guy came to that show a seasoned star of stage and television. He's had profit participation since it went to series. The rest of the cast just got that in their most recent salary negotiation--several years in.

O'Neill makes 200k an episode due to that. Vegara makes 150-175k, dpeneding on bonuses.

Here is a list of the most highly paid actors and actresses on TV. It should be accurate, but there are some things I tend to doubt, including the salaries paid to the cast of Modern Family.
