The SCOTUS has the opportunity to end a big chunk of the Lawyer's Payday that class action lawsuits have become and reign in Title VII.

Read the entire article at the site. It is a very good primer on the subject.

The site you linked was asking me to log in. Too bad, I was interested in seeing if that law professor had a good idea about ending frivolous (or gold-digging) lawsuits.

I’ve never received lower pay because of my gender, and there isn’t much evidence that it ever happens, yet it’s a popular meme among feminists. I’d like to see *that* put to rest.

RULE OF THUMB: In any class action law suit, there are 6 litigants who deserve an award and 300,000 who don’t. Class action law suits are simply a good way for lawyers to rip-off a company.

I have been an expert witness in several class action lawsuits. I learned two basic principles from these experiences. One,lawyers care little if anything about the supposed victims and two,they care a lot about their cut.

Men making more than women and getting promoted faster. The 46-year-old single mother of two

And there lies the disconnect that people refuse to see. How much less often was she available due to family requirements? Obviously her first duty is to her children and that means the job takes the back seat.

How much any employee in the private sector makes should be between them and the company.

If it is to become a government matter then i think i should make as much as a GMC ceo or at least as much as a senator or a lawyer.
