Back in the 50s and 60s federal workers earned less but got better benefits plus had a retirement fund that was way better. People made choices

That lasted well into the 70s....one could work for the Fed or local gov or go Private.
Made a tad more in Private sector and had some perks, mostly a vehicle BUT in 5-10 years the guy that went with government was buying a house and a new car every few years while private sector was still ‘establishing’ himself.
I am really upset upon hearing the disparity concerning White Mens pay being higher..
When in business, I just should have hired women and minorities and just stuck the dollar or so per hour in my pocket.
Live and learn????
Like the question was asked....When is the last time Womens Orgs protested the fact that women pay lower auto insurance rates than men??? OR where is the National Organization Of Men or the White Male Caucus going to take up the cause?
And what about criminal convictions and incarceration? We know the legal system is biased because blacks are convicted and incarcerated at a higher rate than whites. Racism is the only possible explanation because there couldn’t possibly be a demographic difference that would lead to different rates of crime. Similarly, the male-female discrepancy proves sexism in the legal system; it’s the only explanation.
