DeleteI'm guessing there will be more discussion of wage disparity once we get past the primary stage. It's a pretty good assumption that all the dem candidates have a good voting record on wage disparity, while the repubs mostly won't. There are exceptions, of course...

The issues that have received the most attention in this campaign so far are not at all representative of the real every day concerns of actual Americans. And maybe that's typical at this point.
ReplyDeleteI always find it interesting when pundit-types are wronging their hands over the fact that in many two income households women are out-earning men, but there's still this wage gap. How much worse would the so-called women's economy be if there wasn't a wage gap?
ReplyDeleteBecause all we can think about right now is immigration and national security.
