He who possessed the reputation of having been what many have called this nation’s worst president before he was lucky enough to have Barry came along, Jimmy Carter, now says that it’s the Bible that’s to blame for the fact that women make less money than men in the workplace. So I’m curious, might that be the rationale used by Barry’s for his deciding to pay the women who work for him less than what he pays the men? Just askin’.
It was in a recent interview with NBC's Andrea Mitchell that Jimmy proceeded to rattle off some supposed statistics on the issue of unequal pay between the two genders. Carter said, "In the United States for the same exact work for a full-time employee, women get 23 percent less pay than men." He added. "And in the Fortune 500, only 21 of those leaders among the 500 are women, and in that high level they get 42 percent less pay" than men.
Now it was last year at an event celebrating the Equal Pay Act, that Barry repeated the myth that women earn 77 cents on a man's dollar. He said at the time, "The day that the bill was signed into law, women earned 59 cents for every dollar a man earned on average. Today, it's about 77 cents." Barry went on to claim, "Over the course of her career, a working woman with a college degree will earn on average hundreds of thousands of dollars less than a man who does the same work. " Every syllable was pure Democrat bullshit.
Something rarely of ever mentioned by Democrats is the fact that unmarried childless women's salaries very often exceed men's. In an actual comparison of unmarried and childless men and women between the ages of 35 and 43, it was found that, sorry Jimmy, women earn more, roughly 108 cents to a man's dollar. And honestly, wouldn’t you would think that if Barry was so concerned about the wage gap, why not fix things there in the White House? In 2012, female White House staffers made 87 cents on a man's dollar.
And here’s something else to consider. Women often make less than men because they choose more humanities and fewer science and math majors at college. Then, when they graduate, more choose to enter the non-profit or government sector. Finally, many actually choose to work fewer hours to better combine work and family. In May, 2013, according to Labor Department data, 23 percent of women worked part-time, compared to 11 percent of men. But to Democrats this is all of little consequence, it doesn’t fit the liberal narrative.
So like Barry, Jimmy offers up sone pretty questionable ‘proof’ to support his premise. However, unlike other Democrats, Carter has come up with a rather new spin on things after supposedly spending three years researching a link between religion and the abuse of young girls and women across the world for some new book his entitled, "A Call to Action: Women, Religion, Violence, and Power." His supposed research concluded that, yes, there is a link between religion and how females are treated, even in the workplace.
Carter said, "That is really derived, I would say, indirectly from the fact that religious leaders say that women are inferior in the eyes of God, which is a false interpretation of the Holy Scriptures." He then went on to say, "When [men] see the Pope and the Southern Baptist Convention and others say that women can't serve as priests equally with men, they say, 'Well, I'll treat my wife the way I want to because she's inferior to me.'" Is anyone really buying any of this drivel?
In the proposal for his book, Carter called the treatment of women a "human rights" issue. "I am convinced that discrimination against women and girls is one of the world's most serious, all-pervasive and largely ignored violations of basic human rights," Carter wrote, as reported by the New York Times. "It is disturbing to realize that women are treated most equally in some countries that are atheistic or where governments are strictly separated from religion," he said.
Ya know, it is my firm belief that this is really nothing more than part of what has become a concerted effort to convince women that it’s the Democrat Party that should be seen as being their protector. But it continues to be just the opposite that’s true, unless of course one’s looking for a free abortion. Because it has been during this president’s economy that women have been to suffer, unable to find a job. It’s Barry’s policies that have had the biggest impact on women and how they are able to go about living their lives.
