This is typical Republican vs Democrat thinking. Repub look at averages and ignore the realities of the edges. Dems look at all the data and say -- you can't ignore the realities on the edges.

I'm sure that guy is right. Women in that demographic are making more, when you lump all those SINGLE women together. Parse it out, look at different industries, you will get a very different picture.

Hence the Fair Pay Act.

I don't say this as a complete dis to Republicans. It is their world view -- don't get caught up in the details. They honestly want to look at the overall picture.

If you like to think that way, then you will vote Repub. If you are more "fair-minded" -- a moral value that Dems value higher than Reps -- then you will want to legislate fairness.

To be clear, I am all for legislation. However, I also can stand some inequity in the world, more than some of my uber-progressive friends -- I don't think it is possible to legislate away all unfairness. We just will have to live with some.

Fair Pay Act seems like a good piece of legislation.

Embed doesn't work for me.

Sometimes I just don't get why people within a political party fight on certain issues. The Fair Pay Act I totally get why the GOP would be against it ideologically, but good lord, let it go. I know they're against regulations generally speaking, but is this issue really worth that much effort and bickering?
