Because of the pay gap, women have lost out on more than $60 trillion in wages since 1967.
Yes, trillion.
On an hourly basis, women were paid 18.0% less on average than men in 2024.
We must ensure fair wages for all.

This is JUST underpayment for employment
But we don't need no DEI🙄
so,
A gift that keeps on giving
Of course that assumes that we will have Social Security
Here’s what I think…
#TaxTheRich
for a
#BasicIncomeNow
and
#HealthcareForAll
So, if the pay gap had been eliminated 50+ years ago, think how much more of my Social Security payments would be available to be stolen by Musk.
So if you hypothetically have a time machine and change things, make sure you also change his fate 😁
“Over 80% of purchases & purchase influences are made by women.”
Food, clothing, beauty products, gardening, households, baby/child stuff, restaurants, travel, food, houses, cars, etc.
Women alone could tank the economy if they organized & shut this BS down. IF only…
I thought we weren't doing identity politics Robert?
Transparent pay, limit overtime and a choice on who takes leave.
14 trillion dollars went to weapons manufacturers since the so-called war on terror began.
I reacted to the way you framed it as a correction, when it was not.
But you have good faith and listen, so that is great ❤️

It's fine to discuss what enforces the wage gap - that men get higher wages thanks to women fulfilling men's parental responsibilities for them, and for free.
It's a nonsensical derailing tactic to say the wage gap doesn't exist because you found out how it's enforced.
I'm talking about equal right to control one's body.
But if females want males telling them what they can or can't do with their body, then so b it. Enjoy being 2nd class to men.
Yet cookie cutter product placement helps men attain promotions and pay boosts for themselves while propping up a family
They don't die in them.
We can look at how long men live compared to women that indicates that. Men see that. They don't see female carpenters or brickies out in the heat.
It's Time vs Money
Oh dear, I am a silly Hegsworth.
I have worked in over 40 jobs in Australia.
None of them had a separate pay for women.
Only for age. Under 21 you get screwed in Australia.
That was in the steelworks game. Everyone got paid the same, if they did the same job. Women could even get breaks for period pain, it's heavy work
Specifics change, rule is men die sooner.
it's not as if i'm promoting some kind of sex-based affirmative action. only equality and fairness. unions and worker protections
.
Agree, it was never a fair game.
Motherhood is why women get paid less on average.

There is no wage gap when comparing same experience, same knowledge, same schooling, in the same position.
The Left loves to attack the Right for perpetuating myths to rile up their base. Then why are you allowing it here?
No wars, no starving children….Just imagine for a moment
Not to mention that women I’m a household tend to do most of the unpaid domestic labor at home as well, but are also expected to work full-time.
I’m a mid-career dude who has had an equal number of male and female bosses and colleagues at all levels. Can’t help but doubt the pay gap rhetoric.
Google "Pay Equity Act" usually provinces may call it slightly different, "Federal Pay Equity Act" and Equal Pay laws in Canada. Applies to unionized and to a lessor extent non-union.
Happy to answer anything more specific.
It's happening again and again; when will we stop this regime???

And don’t mansplain it to me or I will hurt you.
Using a conservative 15 percent tax bracket, pay discrimination prevented the payment of Federal taxes totaling $9 trillion, if my math is right.
Why should they be paid more when they can't get off their ass to do what's going to help themselves?
THEY DIDN'T EVEN SHOW UP!!!
America no longer wants to hear their bullshit about equality anymore.
Ship sailed...
Maybe then, one or two people *might *just get why Reparations are criminally overdue.
(By the way, thank you for being active on BSky - you are a terrific follow (tariffic?))
The issue is only ever if they get paid less for doing exactly the same job. Women’s rights leaders have confirmed this.

But I think it’s okay if you’re just saying this issue isn’t a priority compared to other problems.
*satirical
Does it have any insight on why that statistical analysis might be truthy?
Every race and gender should have equal opportunity under the law - those racist and sexist special interest groups pushing for favoritism are disgusting.
Insiders tell ProPublica that Amy Gleason is in charge on paper, while Musk’s top lieutenants really run DOGE. One person who knows Gleason described her as having “little to no actual decision making” responsibilities.

I don’t think I know a single woman that hasn’t been harassed in some form in their education or workplace. It can be harrowing space for women.
I’m fortunate enough to not have suffered much from the loss as I live with family. They didn’t offer health insurance since it was a small business, so that was hindering as well.
Sadly, a lot of female posters on Twitter, FB, etc just want extreme feminism.
Some of the things I read reminded me exactly of my dad in the 70s. Sexism was everywhere back then. Women were treat like 2nd class objects.
I don't think the equality I believe in will ever exist.
I believe women in middle management actually get paid more but large inequality exists in specific industries and in edge cases like c-suites and access to investors.
But most jobs are on par, is my understanding.
We have got to compensate women for these losses NOW.
Women are not able to support themselves later in life by what's been done to them.
That is steep agony in depravity

I think “know thy self” is an important message for people figuring it out.
He also voted against veterans.
I just think it’s time to stop. We need to start fighting together all women - all of us. I’m at whitewashing.
We’re in a critical time now whoever is not awake is lost
