After 2 years of that I took a job at the same level of pay but with a way forward. After 20 years I was making $50.00 plus overtime.
Now tell me again how great the 1950's were, my mother was a nurse she made $3,000 a year, I made >100K.

Actually, I don't think he was referring to wages when he was screaming about going back to the 50's. But, I do know where you are coming from. You are proof that we have come a long way when it comes to equal pay. The issue here is whether or not equal pay is still a viable point, or if it is moot. Hillary is attempting to gain female support by alluding to women not making the equivalent pay for the same job. And I believe that this premise is no longer valid or rare today. Sports is a different matter. In my opinion and the opinion of my wife, Hillary is insulting females with her attempt to pander to the females, pander to the youth and pander to the minority. She seems to think that women and minorities are not interested in how she plans to encourage or stimulate the economy, exterminate terrorism and repair all the racial damage that has occurred during Obama's reign.
