Sen. Barbara Mikulski (D-Md.) says women “pay more for everything.”

“For we women, it costs more to be a woman. We pay more for everything,” Mikulski said during a rally for the Paycheck Fairness Act.

“We continue to have to fight the battle of more expensive, medical care, child care, even dry cleaning. They charge us more to do our blouses than guy’s shirts. We women are tired of being taken to the cleaners. Pass Paycheck Fairness,” Mikulski said. …

Register 18-year-old females for selective service. Make up for all the boys we lost in foreign wars by drafting only women in the next battle.

They should for that tent she wears.

Stupid people pay more simply because they are stupid. Smart people take advantage of stupid people every day. Just look around you.

Why wasn’t this passed in 2009 or 2010, when they owned the entire government?

Reminds me of an article a feminist wrote about how frustrated she was with her female co-workers who went into bathrooms to freshen up prior to business meetings. Her point was that men don’t do this so why should women. I never found out how she knows what men do in company bathrooms.

Americans pay more for divide and govern UNIPARTY socialists.

Socialism Is Legal Plunder - Bastiat

6. But the grand nostrum will be a public debt…

7. It must not be forgotten that the members of the legislative body are to have a deep stake in the game. This is an essential point, and happily is attended with no difficulty. A sufficient number, properly disposed, can alternately legislate and speculate, and speculate and legislate, and buy and sell, and sell and buy, until a due portion of the property of their constituents has passed into their hands to give them an interest against their constituents…

10. “Divide and govern” is a maxim consecrated by the experience of ages, and should be familiar in its use to every politician…

11. As soon as sufficient progress in the intended change shall have been made, and the public mind duly prepared according to the rules already laid down, it will be proper to venture on another and a bolder step toward a removal of the constitutional landmarks.

Taken to the cleaners? Mikulski and the remainder of the gang of 535 should be taken to federal prison.

Because then they wouldn’t be able to use it as a campaign issue.

If women learned how to buy only what they need, when they need it, instead of impulse shopping (and that on credit), prices would come down.

I doubt another 8 years is possible. America is headed toward bankruptcy - and it should be. You can't pay everyone for being a victim and your can't reward everyone just for existing.

Okay, women can use ivory soap. It works for clean hair as well. Baking soda makes excellent deodorant. If you’ve got actual dry skin problems Cetaphil works for both sexes. Levis at $36 fit most figures and the same goes for tee shirts. Sneakers work well for both sexes. You can see where I’m going.

Necessities are pretty much the same for both other than a certain feminine product. It is discretionary spending where the difference is and women do get ripped off, most often by other women either directly or by expectations.

Silk blouse vs cotton shirt

Not the same item

Add lace to the collar -makes it harder to clean

Those little pearl buttons, have to be removed before dry cleaning and then resewn
