Thus he concluded that men were, as we all suspect, carrying the load for the entire nation. So, when was the last time a woman thanked you for this?

Sadly, no one ever wants to like it for some reason. The men who won't are cowards and the women won't because they know it's true. <br /><br />https://www.forbes.com/sites/chuckdevore/2018/12/19/fatal-employment-men-10-times-more-likely-than-women-to-be-killed-at-work/#18694b8d52e8<br /><br />I did see this episode the other day, so hats off to these ladies that actually do something productive.

You are correct in that...Point of order, Captain. <br /><br />You are correct in that “farguzi” means fake. But it is not synonymous with FUBAR; that is actually originally a military term, an acronym for “Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition”.<br /><br />Another nit to pick: Terrance Popp announced recently that the Rangers are now admitting and graduating females - and Popp seems to think the wahmen are farguzi Rangers. Yes, women will be dying on the battlefield soon.Glen Filthiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03256741311142364722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-47126404298180228742019-10-01T02:15:28.625-07:002019-10-01T02:15:28.625-07:00Maybe they are all smarter than you think.

The percentages may vary from country to country but overall, I believe that it is representative of the western economic model.<br /><br />And, when you take into account Aarons point that the "jobs" the women do, if the jobs and roles disappeared, then the likely effect on the companies and organisations would be, at worst, negligible, at best a massive savings on useless overhead.<br /><br />Phil B<br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-4645399865540236472019-09-30T15:05:39.973-07:002019-09-30T15:05:39.973-07:00We are coming up on the 100th anniversary of the N...We are coming up on the 100th anniversary of the Nineteenth Amendment to the Constitution.

I have to wonder how much of this is make work employment for women with worthless degrees. Let them go. We are over twenty trillion in debt. As for useless women employed in the private sector, you would think that employers would seek efficiencies. I guess that doesn't happen when HR is full of ditzes.<br />-FuzziewuzziebearAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-16504017165701518542019-09-30T12:27:26.742-07:002019-09-30T12:27:26.742-07:00About 5 years ago I got into a debate with a Stron...About 5 years ago I got into a debate with a Strong Independent Woman (tm) regarding female economic contributions - so some of these figures may be a bit out of date but I can't imagine the situation has got any better.<br /><br />She quoted some article 'celebrating' female business acumen.<br /><br />From it;<br />"In the U.S., an estimated 8.6 million women-owned businesses contribute $1.3 trillion to the economy and employ 7.7 million Americans, according to an April report commissioned by American Express OPEN, the credit card giant's small business division. What's more, the number of women-owned firms with $10 million or more in annual sales has increased 57 percent over the past decade."<br /><br />Sounds great doesn’t it?<br /><br />However.<br /><br />The latest figures from the World Bank puts the annual GDP of the US economy at 16.8 trillion dollars. The link celebrates that female owned businesses are contributing 1.3 trillion dollars or 7.7% of this.<br /><br />The latest figures from the US Department of Labor puts the number of civilians employed at a whisker under 144 million. The link trumpets that female owned businesses employ 7.7 million or 5.3% of this.<br /><br />This is all that women, as a group, can bring to the table after 50 years of 'equal' opportunity, affirmative action in education, huge amounts of legislation to tilt the playing field in their favour and the complete re-tooling of the working world to suit their needs? 7.7% of GDP? After 50 years?<br /><br />Christ, after WW2 it took men, often in appalling conditions, only 20 years to rebuild the whole of Europe.<br /><br />But that's not the worst of it;<br /><br />Pew Research Social and Demographic Trends found that in 2012, 49% of men and 61% of women had ever received payments from at least one the big six entitlement programs. The same report revealed that more women receive multiple benefits than do men, so the actual value of the benefits paid by sex will inevitably show a greater disparity. This figure is never published (wonder why!) but let’s say that by value, the benefits paid splits 35% male 65% female. The President's FY 2013 budget allocated just around 1.7 trillion dollars to these programs, which means women are receiving approx. 1.1 trillion dollars.<br /><br />If we assume that female owned businesses in the link are paying 20% of their 7.7% of GDP to Big Daddy Government as tax (they're not, female run businesses are significantly smaller and less profitable than male ones, but indulge me) then they are paying in about 260 billion dollars.Or about 850 billion dollars less than what women, as a group, are taking out of the pot.<br /><br />Women, as a group, are not even close to paying their way, let alone able to produce a surplus for anyone else.<br /><br />But it gets even worse.<br /><br />Whilst women, as a group, are being subsidized by men, as a group, to the tune of 850 billion dollars a year, every year, we are all supposed to be chanting the mantra that women are men's equals, that they must be respected like men, that they can perform and deliver like men.<br /><br />It’s simply not sustainable. In fact it’s sickening.<br /><br />Because the cost of pretending that women are equal isn't just measured in those 850 billion dollars.<br /><br />They are more truly measured in the broken men, exhausted lonely women, fatherless children, fractured families and ruined lives it takes to keep a handful of women at the 'top'.<br /><br />And for what? Bragging rights?<br /><br />Hell of a price to pay for a bunch of hot air.Caddersnoreply@blogger.com
