Patricia Arquette’s speech was embarrassing. What was she thinking?

She wasn't thinking, she was mindlessly spewing leftist drivel.

How can a millionaire woman speaking in a room half full of millionaire women, including one who is (or was) one of the top five richest people on the planet screech about inequality for women?

You’re giving her too much credit...a woman who has appeared in countless TV shows and films over the course of her career, with an annual income in the six and seven-figures, has no right to lecture anyone on income equality. If she wants a bigger paycheck, Ms. Arquette should demonstrate that she can bring more people into the theater.

As an actress, she appears to have two assets. She’s lucky to have had a career that has lasted this long; most members of her profession never earn enough to support themselves. If she’s really for income equality, perhaps she should donate half of her weekly salary on CSI:Cyber (well over $100,000 per episode) to he unemployed peers.

Don’t hold your breath waiting for that to happen.

The last figure I heard was that 92 million people are not in the labor force. It would seem to me that perhaps half of that number are women. Had Arquette been sincere, she would have commented about the terrible state of the economy and the hardships it imposes on women. The ultimate equal pay is zero dollars for women and zero dollars for men.
