Historical Statistics â€“ ERA is currently looking for updated data in these categories

Women earned less than men in 99% of all occupations for which data is available.

Unionized employees are paid in accordance with collective bargaining agreements. If unions negotiated agreements that paid women less money for equal work, then weren't unions complicit in economic discrimination against women?

Post by: Eupher on June 01, 2012, 09:48:12 AM: I always had the impression that the Velcro union would have lobbied to have the dwarf tossing legislation shitcanned. They go through a lot of velcro tossing dwarves. Kinda bad for business to shut down dwarf-tossing.
