Researchers found that working women and women of color are particularly affected by the disparities in pay. Of course.

Yes. Those evil corporations aren’t paying enough to keep up with something that is totally Putin’s fault. Cough.

Inflation. Shut down the economy for a year, and print money to compensate, and you get massive inflation.
It will help if they return to drilling for oil to bring us back to energy independence, and it will help if we bring more of our manufacturing back on shore. We used to have a president who understood that.

No problem, Joe Biden said he has a plan today to inflate your dying wage to a living wage. Biden said, Let me be clear, I plan to do a whole lot of economic inflating. I plan to keep inflating until this economy is all blown up, you hear me all blown up.

If the Government and Business would stop screwing with supply and demand (labor) this problem would correct itself pretty quick.
Businesses are screwed if their workers and customers can’t afford to buy their products.

Researchers said that about $3,000 more per student, per year is needed to support achievement of national average test scores. Give me the school budgets....I could fix them really quick.

The U.S. is one of the most dangerous high-income countries in which to give birth—especially for people of color. To achieve birth justice so that all who give birth can have healthy pregnancies and healthy babies, we must center the voices and experiences of Black, Indigenous and other people of color and dismantle the structural racism and health inequities that fuel these disparities. Learn more about our birth justice grantees.

That's about all we need to know about them.

I suspect that what many people need is to stop trying to indulge their champagne tastes with a beer income.

I’ll help you and we can do the job in half quick time! You can start with the “assistant admin jobs” and I will start with any counselor who is not doing career placement.

Does that include the illegals that get a full welfare ride? Oh, and the ‘refugees’?

Spot on! Next, any class that is teaching crt/woke/blm/ and other nonsense goes.
I also see the continuing requirement to get this certificate or that masters for more pay, which means more for the unions, goes. And for that matter, so do the unions.
