[Granny Bear]

This was so important to you that you had to post twice!!??

I am usually in agreement with Granny Bear. However, I do want to shed light on one of her statements- "equal pay for equal work". In the eyes of the government and liberals, what does that term mean?

I honestly don't give a damn what the term means in the eyes of the liberals...I'm just so tired of that.


It doesn't mean "equal pay for the same work" as many seem to think. That concept is already a part of our labor law.

It may be a part of our labor law, but it isn't effective, IMO.


"Equal work" does not mean the "same work". The government decides what jobs are equal and applies the "equality". For example, in one instance, the government determined that a librarian (female) and a carpenter (male) were "equal jobs" and were entitled to "equal pay". The "equality" was obviously governmentally decreed without any semblance of reality.

Total BS...again just my opinion.


"Equal job " is an elusive term that is defined by the government. Therein lies the danger and the deception.

Agree with this statement.


Surely, no one opposes "equal pay" for the same job. Having the government define "equal jobs" and making demands is another matter.

This first statement is very very unlike you, Harry Rex......naive.
Agree with your last statement.



Please don't be offended. I've followed your posts for years, and agree with the overwelming majority! I will freely admit that my perspective comes from a woman working in a predominately male industry.
