There are a lot of men on *disability*, the major perk being government funded medical care and opiate scripts. Those are often the same men these women are involved with. In one instance, the husband was on disability and when they divorced, he received food stamps and a housing subsidy (maybe heat, as well?)because the wife’s disability income was gone after the divorce. She, OTOH, was penalized with reduced benefits since she was sharing an apartment with an adult daughter and since she worked the maximum number of hours (18/week) she was allowed before her Medicaid was cut.
I have learned that there is an entire subculture living like this. Men, women, their late teen children. It was almost like learning about the Travelers.
Ah, but Clinton/Obama/Kennedy are trying to pass laws that exempt women from having to negotiate higher pay.
They just have to get a lawyer and file a “equal pay” lawsuit, or just threaten to, and the employer will have to comply.
Another piece of garbage they’re pushing is in the “Civil Rights Act of 2008” - if there is “disparate outcome” of pay or hiring, the employer can be sued for discrimination, even if the policy itself is non-discriminatory.
This could force financial institutions to hire felons because of the “disparate outcome” in hiring for excluding them.
