I suggest watching the whole thing. He just demolishes feminist talking points with facts right to the end.

Here is how the Society for Human Resource Management describes the proposed "Paycheck Fairness Act"

Quote:It would effectively prohibit employers from using many legitimate factors to compensate their employees, including professional experience, education, training, employer need, local labor market rates, hazard pay, shift differentials and the profitability of the organization.

Sounds great! Can't imagine why it got rejected twice.

This is a fantastic video. Liberals are delusional about reality, and when the unintended consequences from government meddling make things even worse they think more liberalism is the solution.

I'm a business owner, and with a free market I don't care what gender my employees are as long as they can do the job well. But since the government requires bullshit like maternity leave I'm not going to hire women between 16-45 except on short term contracts - the risk to me is too great.

Their stupid policies have now made things worse for women. If as a result they start forcing me to hire 50% women I'll close down and move abroad, taking jobs and taxes with me.

Well done liberals!

There is a video of Milton Friedman explaining this exact thing to a woman in an audience who told him that there should be something done by the govt. to make sure women paid as much as men. It was linked up here and he destroys here argument using the same points you listed above.

What is sad is this video was probably from the late 1970's or early 1980's. Logic is not difficult, but liberals will fight against logic/reality tooth and nail. 40 years later and they are pushing for the same things that have failed for 40 years and hurt the very people the most who support it the most.

I don't think you can reason with most liberals/feminists. I guess just let them screw up their own lives and then give them a minimum safety net.

Problem is their policies affect everyone, not just themselves. So even if you don't buy into their bullshit fantasies about how their dictates will change human nature into the fairytale version they hope for, you still have to pay into their system: higher taxes, state intrusion in marriage, curtailed self-defense rights, etc.

Yea, it is terrible. Once we gave women the right to vote, it opened the doors to allowing the state to destroy the beta male and make most men's lives miserable.

Thank Goodness for game, at least it is a partial outlet from the oppression.

But still we are beholden to the increasing anti-male laws, anti-male courts, anti-male societal attitude, and increasing taxes, increasing COL, and decreasing rewards.

It seems most liberals/feminists cannot be reasoned with though. And as long as they have equal say, it will hurt all of us until the entire system collapses from the weight of the federal debt.

I guess the next step would be to move out of the Anglo-sphere, but with the USA going down as it appears to be doing, I don't know how safe much of the world will be in a decade or two.

Or secession. Split the country between people who can abide by the Constitution and those who want to draft a unicorns and fairy dust constitution.

I think it will happen. I hope it happens peacefully, but history shows that balkanization is usually a violent process.

I know a few people who are eyeing Texas in case it decides to secede one day.

But, IMO, this is all by design. Feminism allows the wealthy to both control the beta males and keep them from being too much of a risk to taking their wealth. It also controls population growth, which is a large concern for them.

Even though the young men are starting to wake up to this mess, I fear it will be too little too late. Watch the liberal feminists suffer from their own ignorance and laugh at them for it.
