About that trickle down theory:

There is no such thing as income ine******y because your income is equal to the amount of work you put into it.

What a bunch of BS, go to college, work hard, save, make good choices and success will follow. Are you a democrat?

From the male perspective, of course. Women are expected to do a whale of a lot of work and get no pay for it.

You are absolutely right. The sex s***es who are primarily women and children do not get their fair share of the money they bring in. The people who force them into the business include Muslim men members of the large gangs who get children addicted to drugs and then sell their services on the streets, and other such slime such as the multimillionaire friend fo the Clintons who regularly entertains BOTH Clintons on his sex s***e island. You apparently have much the same mindset as these people, so you should be happy with them earning all that money.

when i worked in a chemical plant i saw how women worked.the maintenance teamed by twos and the guys who got the women were doomed to work their arse off because the women couldn't or wouldn't carry their share of the load.In the operations part the operator is working on his own and has no help with the job,and women didn't go near those jobs.

Excuse me! I was referring to wives and mothers. I am definitely NOT in the mindset of people who wish to ens***e others. Or do you follow along with the (mostly male) other economists who believe that if there is not a pay check attached it is somehow not work?

Might have happened where you were. I've worked maintenance. Guys always got the fun stuff that involved wrenches. Women always had the cleanup, and let me tell you it is difficult to dump a bucket that weighs as much as you do!

Dr. Evil Loc: In Your Face

Dumping a bucket hardly equates to hard work and pay equity, maybe you should've found a job less demanding. You're backing yourself in a corner, fun stuff with wrenches? You are a kook.

Quakerwidow Loc: Chestertown, MD

What part of maintenance are you not getting? Dumping the buckets was AFTER scrubbing walls and floors, which the guys didn't do because they were out riding mowers.

certainly not. however, if women are taking care of their own home and their own children who is supposed to pay them for the work? If you say it should be the government then you believe that others should pay without expecting anything for their money. "From each according to their ability To each according to their need" The c*******t way I guess.

Yes:and having done all that, all it takes is the stock market wiping out a life-time of savings to end up in poverty. Or is a housewife supposed to control the stock market as well?

BULLS**T! A look at five decades’ worth of wage data suggests another scenario. For most U.S. workers, real wages — that is, after inflation is taken into account — have been flat or even falling for decades, regardless of whether the economy has been adding or subtracting jobs. After adjusting for inflation, today’s average hourly wage of $20.67 has just about the same purchasing power as it did in 1979. In fact, in real terms the average wage peaked more than 40 years ago: The $4.03-an-hour rate recorded in January 1973 has the same purchasing power as $22.41 would torday. Going back further, the minimum wage was $1.60 per hour in 1968. Adjusted for inflation, to have the same purchasing power as that $1.60/hour had in 1968, the minimum wage would need to be $11.00/hour today.

On the other hand, for the last 30 years almost all incentives operating on American corporations have resulted in lower pay for average workers and higher pay for CEOs and other top executives regardless of their performance on the job. Consider that in 1965, CEOs of America’s largest corporations were paid, on average, 20 times the pay of average workers.

Now, the ratio is over 300 to 1.

Not only has CEO pay exploded, so has the pay of top executives just below them.

As stated in a Natural News article: Essentially, Capitalism is redistribution of wealth from the poor to the rich. (Especially during the last 40 years.)

For Capitalism to succeed, it requires that ALL members of society work for the benefit of the FEW. It places power in the hands of the FEW to exploit ALL.

Reagan was full of s**t with his phony trickle down LIE. It is more like trickle UP!

My parents both worked and raised 6 boys, back in the 90's when the market crashed, they lost $800,000.00, they never asked for anything, and never, EVER, thought somebody owed them. A housewife should be supported by her husband-if she's living alone with the children, there's welfare, for the needy, and the lazy. I despise the democraps and the handouts, nobody owes anyone jack sh#t. My parents used the old cliche, you made your bed-now sleep in it. John Wayne had a good one too, "Life's tough, it's even tougher when you're stupid".
