Not sure I follow. There should be equal pay for equal performance....

+Ian McAlister It's a government edict that enforces such a contract between two people. Reducing the ability of anyone to make a consensual contract that derives from their skills and aptitude for work experience and income.

Because the truth is they can do many jobs (not all) as well as a man. milton's logic is only true if women aren't as productive in a certain job. But they are...However, I don't necessarily support a law requiring equal pay. The only way to determine a fair wage (for anyone) is if people have a choice not to work. That's why I support a minimum income. Like Milton Friedman.

+mfriedrich2012 Because they are dumb. On average women work less hours overall, they work less overtime, they choose lower paying jobs, they fall pregnant, they take time out of their career to raise children. By enforcing equal pay they are actually incentivizing employees to take on more men because they will get more work for the same cost by employing a man. Women should be getting paid less than men for good reason it has little to do with sexism..

Milton Friedman the 5'0'' tall mastermind Jew who the economic Nobel peace Prize. He's A. For legalized of all drugs.B. Paying less to certain people for the same job, propelling prejudice. C. Banning Social Security & Medicare because he believes the common man can fend for himself.We all know that the common man DOES NOT do well with budgeting,savings, retirement etc and will fail as a majority! Milton Friedman is a damn fool, all his theories have been proven to be catastrophical but people still eat his bullshit up like lucky charms with a spoon!

+Johnny Tobifour I get what you're trying to say but look at it this way. Nationalist Socialism is stopping the UN from taking over the world. That's fascism. You can see it start in the European Union.
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-XdUIqdMkCWA/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/4252rscbv5M/photo.jpg?sz=64
I missed this one but you earlier said : "No, I do not believe the common man can budget this himself because the common man has a poor record of doing so,don't you see?I also don't believe in the liberal way of "codependency" for this way has a record of failure."Please enlighten us to what this actually means? Go look up negative income. Maybe you'll find your answer.
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-XdUIqdMkCWA/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/4252rscbv5M/photo.jpg?sz=64
+Johnny Tobifour The terms national socialism and fascism can be mutually exclusive. It is laughable that you can't see this occurring around the world as we speak. There are plenty of political parties whose purpose is to promote the welfare of their national citizens. You've obviously done a quick google search on the term "national socialism" and it came up with the Nazi's. What would you call the government in Hungary right now? Or how about Australia for that matter. In my country Australia we have a political party called reclaim Australia party. This is a democratic organisation with no ties to Fascism. Fascism is more what you see from the Left side of politics with political correctness. Now that is silencing your political opponents much like Mussolini. The prime minister of Australia recently broke the UN convention on refugees (by sending boats back) and amended the citizenship laws so they can strip citizenship off terrorists. Could you call this fascism? Possibly but soon after he was ousted by his own political party for being unpopular... Hardly fascism here? It's not like the government is going around killing its opponents.Further, you can't put a definition on the term "libertarian". Some can want full anarchy and some (like me) are for less government role in private life. I still want a army and services but I want the LAWS and ECONOMIC policy associated with "libertarian" ideals. Such as the right to not be harmed by another person. Example air pollution. Lastly, here we are discussing a Milton Friedman video. His economic views are clearly from libertarian but he is not a complete "down with capitalism" type of guy. He is a mix of both freedom and government control. Also, he is promoting less centralized government and more liberty at the same time. How is that different from what I said?
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-XdUIqdMkCWA/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/4252rscbv5M/photo.jpg?sz=64
+Eric HayesYou are clearly a leftist based on your false sense of superiority and how much you despise the "common man." You do not believe in giving people the freedom to control their own destiny.  You think they need a big brother state to do that for them. You should kill yourself.
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-XdUIqdMkCWA/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/4252rscbv5M/photo.jpg?sz=64
+MaccaHow are you going to have a national socialism without a facism government? That's a contradiction my friend. Socialism cannot work without a overbearing centralized government controlling the money and deciding how it should be distributed (most of it to the government of course). You can't have a socialist system without a fascist state. Honestly I don't know how you call yourself a libertarian. What you should call yourself is "the walking contradiction." You are a very confused man, much like Eric Hayes.
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-XdUIqdMkCWA/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/4252rscbv5M/photo.jpg?sz=64
+Eric Hayes That's exactly my point. I can't see any rational point you make that support any ideology. I group anyone into the broad "left" category based on this views of "FREEDOM". If you believe in centralized government having more control over everyday life, then to me, you are a "leftie". However, if you support things like human "rights" such as right to bear arms, right to make choices and freedom to be paid according to the supply and demand of the market. I could place you in the libertarian camp.You haven't given any hints as to what you actually support? ME: I'm a right wing libertarian who believes in national socialism with FREEDOM of expression without fascism in a country where a strong majority rules. I also strongly support a "FREE" court system free from political interference. I live in Australia and with our current prime minister I am in paradise. Discussion is at a point where minds are open to anything. Australia could even get rid of the monarchy in my lifetime.Re usable rockets into space? You mean my children will get to ride into space one day?Lighten up dude the worlds not all that bad.

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-XdUIqdMkCWA/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/4252rscbv5M/photo.jpg?sz=64
+Eric Hayes Another example of how messed up the left side of politics are.When the left socialists disagree with a rational idea or anything they immediately try to change what they say and start insulting the other party to the debate.It's sad really. You'l think debate could occur without childish name calling but in today's world the "left" really has nothing else. Just let the other side learn this information for themselves. Most have never done a hard days work and never earn't that dollar to save. I hope as people become more educated they will see through this rubbish. Or maybe we should take away the vote from long term unemployed. Either way there is not a single rational thought from you...Adam Smith Milton Friedman and you can't even mention the works of George Soros. God luck to you sir please don't make yourself look any worse.

+Johnny Tobifour Ouch. You let nothing I wrote sink in, that's sad.Again simpleton, I never said I was a statist,and I know what it is nor did I ever say I believe in controlling anyone! Your ignorance is shameful.
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-XdUIqdMkCWA/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/4252rscbv5M/photo.jpg?sz=64
+Eric HayesThe fact that you believe that the common person is too stupid to take care of themselves, proves you are a statist and no better than a communist. The Constitution was written to secure liberty for the common man, and most importantly promote capitalism and financial security for the people. It is people like you who believe you know better than them and want to control the lives of people.
https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-ValRSxWZgRM/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAANo/nUF9P-2ofKU/photo.jpg?sz=64
+Johnny Tobifour How can you call me statist? I know I'm not better than the common man because you do not know me you slander me & make assumptions,its clear to me that you indeed are that of the common man,weak,feeble minded ,presumptuously accusing & assuming without factual basis for your condemnation.I never once said nor thought a small group of elites should control society.This is the sickness of the human condition in which you & your kind are saturated in,this is why you suffer from your many diseases.I strongly believe in the liberty of the individual but recognize also that people as a whole are codependent, wasteful,gluttonous, needy, selfish,spoiled rotten heathens.As far as me not liking America & telling me to go elsewhere, I say to you come make me tough guy!You're about as intelligent as an inch worm & have the gall of a goat, you recognize nothing of significance & perceive only your own self importance, you've become utterly worthless.
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-XdUIqdMkCWA/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/4252rscbv5M/photo.jpg?sz=64
+Eric HayesThat is why you are a statist. You think you are better than the "common man." You think a little group of elites should control society. You do not believe in freedom for the individual. The common man does not have a poor record of budgeting and managing his finances. That's how America was built and became the greatest society on Earth in under 300 years. Don't like it? Then go somewhere where the common man doesn't have control. Go to Venezuela where the state controls your finances. See how much better it is and ask the people there whether they would like the freedom to control their money and potentially risk losing it all. Go and see how many of them would rather ditch their government "safety net" for a society where they can have the freedom to control what they earn.Otherwise, stay in America. Give me control of your finances since you are a commoner and I will decide how you should budget.
https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-ValRSxWZgRM/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAANo/nUF9P-2ofKU/photo.jpg?sz=64
+Johnny Tobifour​When I hear his speech, I hear not a man for the common man but a man that sounds like he's for the common man,there's a huge difference. No, I do not believe the common man can budget this himself because the common man has a poor record of doing so,don't you see?I also don't believe in the liberal way of "codependency" for this way has a record of failure.
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-XdUIqdMkCWA/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/4252rscbv5M/photo.jpg?sz=64
Milton Friedman was for the common man budgeting his/her life because that allows the common man a much greater amount of freedom. If you believe the common man cannot budget this himself. Then who should do it? The government? Why should the government decide what is best?

Haha, no I never said it was his jewish heritage from the Torah based on religious beliefs, but my mentioning his jewish ancestry was intended on the fact that many Jews are notorious for monetary capitalism at any cost. Is that a blanket statement with implications of race prejudice ? Perhaps one can take it that way, but I understand one entire race isn't necessarily corrupt but a good bit can be guided by a mindset unworthy for human consumption. It's just an observation not a racist or anti religious remark. I don't believe in many of his ugly capitalistic ways thats all. You don't have to be a Jew to have this mindset but it doesn't stop most of them from it

For all of you that say the Wage Gap is a myth or debunked, I'd say tel it to Jennifer Lawrence. I know for a fact that the wage gap is real. Also or those of you who complain because women get maternity leave. 1. YOU push something the size of a watermelon out of something the size of a lemon on your body then immediately go back to work, and tell me how you like it! Additionally, most organizations offer maternity leave but only the unpaid variety. There is also FMLA where men and women can take time off to bond with their child"ren". Please note that FMLA is unpaid leave also.

Here purpandorange, read this article for yourself. Below is a quote from the article."Lawrence says when she found out "how much less I was being paid than the lucky people with dicks," she got mad. At herself. "I failed as a negotiator because I gave up early," Lawrence writes. "I didn’t want to keep fighting over millions of dollars that, frankly, due to two franchises, I don’t need."//www.fastcompany.com/3052255/strong-female-lead/jennifer-lawrence-reveals-how-she-feels-about-the-american-hustle-gender-Here's what Bradley cooper said about the pay gap and the reality of it.//www.reuters.com/article/us-film-bradleycooper-jenniferlawrence-idUSKCN0S82VY20151014

+manturian What? Jennifer Lawrence is one of the highest paid actresses in Hollywood, what does she have anything to do with it? If you know for a fact it's real, then you must have some evidence that somehow discredits the countless facts that show it isn't real. So give it up, clearly you found something that nobody who researched this topic was ever to find, so what is it?Nobody is complaining about women getting maternity leave, they are saying that women work less hours since they have a child to take care of now. So the gap there isn't because of sexism, it's because of the choice of the woman, and there is no way around it unless you either 1. Force companies to pay women for hours they never worked, ensuring that no company hires a women or 2. Force a women to work more hours and spend less time raising their child.

Uh... you do realise that this video basically points out the ENTIRE problem with the wage gap myth by about 0:25 seconds, right? See, here's the issue - if I, as an employer, am capable of hiring a woman or a person of color for LESS than I would a white person, why in the FUCK would I bother hiring on ANY white people at all? Why would I not just employ female people of color ALL THE TIME in order to spend less on wages? The answer is: I CAN'T do that because we have specific laws in place to ensure as an employer that I can NOT do that. It is literally AGAINST THE LAW to discriminate against people on that basis. If any business is found guilty of this, they stand to lose hundreds of thousands, if not MILLIONS in litigation and damages. There is no employer on the planet that would consider it viable to risk hundreds of thousands of dollars in order to save a dollar an hour in employee wages, even if it were multiple employees, sorry. Just wouldn't happen.

+David Archer I completely agree. The gap is average pay rate, but doesn't include any specific job types. It's the average that woman and men are paid across all fields of work. That includes jobs that are normally predominately woman, or predominately male. It just tells you that the jobs men go for pay better than the jobs woman go for, and not that women are paid less then men when doing the same job, although rare cases do happen and are dealt with. I'm just surprised this myth is still around.

I am not for women being equal, here me out here i'm no sexist. OK so if you guys want to be equal that's totally fine and understandable. The thing women don't understand if they are going to be equal things like, hold the door for a lady, the girl always get to light the joint/blunt, or you cant hit a woman NEED to go straight out the window. You're now equal so why do you still have special rules? I should be able to knock the shit out of a girl for slapping me or saying something that would get a guy bodied if he ever said that.

The thing about equality is that it means, if you're going to be a good person YOU HOLD THE DOOR OPEN for whoever is behind you, and you don't hit anyone EVER... unless it's in self defence, and if it is in self defence there's no need for excessive use of force.No one is saying men and women aren't different in many ways... but a lot of those ways are completely created by social expectations.I don't even know why I'm trying to explain something to you, when you sound like a moron, but here's hoping that you just didn't explain your stance on the situation properly

Women do the same work as men so women should absolutely get the same pay. Women build about half of the roads, half of the bridges, half of the buildings, half of the cars, half of the airplanes and about half of the hydroelectric damns and nuclear power plants. Women enforce half of the laws and fight half of the wars. Women drill half of the oil, catch half of the fish, mine half of the ore and log half of the wood. Women make up half of the workplace fatalities and do half of the heavy lifting. Women invent half of the technology and are about 50% as responsible for the production and maintenance of computers and the internet. In the face of all these facts, how can anyone justify women making only 78% of what men make?

Did they actually watch and listen to the video, or did they impose their belief on what they think she is saying? She says you don't deserve something "SIMPLY" because you are a woman, and to think such a claim is offensive to women. You deserve what you are worth, experience, etc. If the person before me earned $159K, after working for ten years, why in the bloody heck should I begin making $159K the first day on the job? They worked ten years to finally earn this amount, yet I'm supposed to begin day one with $159K (because I'm a woman)? Wow.

Let's be completely honest. I'm gonna say what 90% of the men in here wanna say. Women are only good for taking care of kids, cooking, and keeping our balls empty. THAT'S IT. I await the typical female response of "men are only good for...", "Attacking my character as an individual based upon my comment" "Imaginary size of my penis" "You must not get laid" "Do you think the same way about your Mom and/or daughter?" Listen, the women of olde knew this and the families were 10x better than they are now. I know it's an unspoken rule to oppose a woman in any way shape or form, but I'm just being honest..

Not to mention the fact that most women were not even allowed to attend schools or do any type of job that was not considered within the feminine regions. I do find it disappointing when I see men throwing this argument around as if it is some kind of indication of female capacities when it is really in fact an indication of how the previous gender role related societal systems have reduced women's capabilities to do things other than raising children or cooking. You want women to stay at home, look pretty and cook? Fine that's your stance, but then don't say anything about them not 'building society' or even blame them for that, because guess what, that exact stance  is the only reason for that occurrence and it has nothing to do with female capacities, their intelligence or anything. It has only something to do with what society expects from them and them living up to those exact expectations.  If you do allow women to do other things and we still haven't contributed jack-shit then we can talk fairly, but if I look around me that's not at all what I see.

+chief5billion And women took care of all the kids so that you guys could build it..So what's your point? Most women were stuck with multiple kids at age 18 due to absence of birth control, so quite obviously most of them were a bit pre occupied. We both have done our part in building society as a TEAM I swear that's what people forget sometimes.

Hi +Ramifications,I share your disdain for psychoanalytical responses to arguments, as opposed to substantive responses.  People often try to tell you why you believe something that is incorrect, rather than show you that what you believe is incorrect... and it's the most annoying thing, isn't it.You may also be right in thinking that some men (and indeed some women) may share your sentiment.However, (yeah, you knew the 'but' was coming) your claim is simply horrendously and hysterically incorrect.  There are competent women in almost every field of employment.  I know a competent female blacksmith who can win at arm-wrestling against most guys I know.  I have a competent female lawyer who can explain the most complex laws in an easy-to understand way.  I know a competent female lecturer who is developing new ideas in AI. There are lists and lists of female scientists (see above), film producers, artists, politicians, designers.So yeah... women are good for more than keeping your balls empty and your stomach full. And if you really DO live in Saudi Arabia and have never seen or met a female professional before... please realise that the world is a bigger and stranger place than you can currently imagine.P.S. I'm a guy, I used to work in childcare... yup! Guys can be good at all that stuff you think of a 'women's work' too.

+TE S That is what is lost in these debates. They cannot ever find real data because people doing the same job often aren't making the same money because of many factors. If I hire two girls for $11/hr then during a boom period hire another girl for $15 and she is kinda lazy and then during the next recession hire another girl for $10/hr then I have 4 girls making different wages. You often can't find two people making the same money because even with the same job title they might have different responsibilities.

Given that humans seem to be unable to do so, can the monkeys comprehend the concept of disparate quality of performance of task, which would justifiably result in a different reward?
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-XdUIqdMkCWA/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/4252rscbv5M/photo.jpg?sz=64
+SecularDogma Considering that the monkey seemed to be checking the quality of the rock the second time around, I would assume that they probably can. It would be interesting to test monkeys on whether or not they notice and are willing to work on the disparate quality of performance of a task. For example, prior to the experiment you could give one monkey the task of smoothing out it's rocks, while the other one is unaware and does nothing. Then, when you do the experiment, test to see whether or not the monkey with the not smooth rocks notices the difference in rocks and works to match the quality in order to receive the grape.

Yeah that's funny but... Totally irrelevant to any honest argument. Women/men/minorities/etc.. don't complain about being paid in acorns while everyone else gets dollars. They are complaining that they get less dollars. And studies have proven their claims are typically false or stem from other causes, such as who is a better employee, who works more hours, dependable, experience, etc..
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-XdUIqdMkCWA/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/4252rscbv5M/photo.jpg?sz=64
+Ariel Epouhe I'm saying the monkeys have no concept of varying value other than their own preference.. So it's hard to tell if they're upset about getting "less" or they're upset because they didn't get what they wanted. I understand the concept of competing currency and even support it. But it doesn't make sense to try and compare this to our society because that system isn't present here.
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-XdUIqdMkCWA/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/4252rscbv5M/photo.jpg?sz=64
+vexx506 How does that make it irrelevant? I think you're just blind to the relevance...It's a vary simple experiment, but it still is an interesting way to study society's problems. You could even make the experiment more complex by having one of the monkey smooth out it's rocks before the experiment. Then, during the experiment, when the monkey notices that the other one keeps getting grapes, you could see whether it begins to notice the difference between the rocks and whether it will smooth out it's rocks in order to receive the grapes.Dollars are just pieces of paper that we use to purchase goods. The rocks could even serve the role of dollars in this case. You could make grapes cost more rocks than cucumbers, teach the monkeys this association, and then give them tasks where they could earn more rocks to get more treats.
