I am a woman and I have no debt! I came into the workforce in 1973 Nixon was president there were wage freeze's mine was frozen at 3.10 per hour. A college grad in the medical field. Over the next few years I worked my way up to Chief Tech of the Laboratory only to have my wages frozen at that level. 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 And I believe that this premise is no longer valid or rare today.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.

I doubt he lives in the Villages. His house would have been burned down a long time ago. We do have some trolls and agitators from all over the place on here. I'm sure he is harmless. His caretaker will be along shortly to give him his meds, I'm sure. He probably hasn't kept current on his AA meetings. His last one attended was probably thirty years ago.

Why do you always think a responder is a man? I am not. I have had a house in The Villages since 2008. When I retired 2 years ago we sold our house in Colorado and moved full time to The Villages. However, after 1.5 summers here we decided we were NOT going to make it as FROGS so we purchased a condo in Colorado for the summer. We leave tomorrow for the Women's Final Four and then in late April for the mountains.

I am NOT a troll and I don't drink

Both of my houses are mortgage free..... I worked hard and saved just as hard.

Explain that in regards to the World Champion Women's Soccer Team....

Did they not play hard, did they not play more games than the men in the World Cup, did they not win more money than the men?

Actually all of that is true so how are they coveting their neighbors goods?

A wait your answer.

Were they OK with the rules and regs and pay when they signed their contracts?

Of course they were!

Too bad. I was giving you the benefit of a doubt. I figured you had to be a guy on a bad trip or just a loonietoon. So, if you are not on a bad trip, then...........

I say fight back.

I prefer the players be cooperative and positive, but that sometimes it's necessary to be confrontational when the other side is treating you unfairly or trying to take advantage of them.

The risk is that you'll make a bad situation worse, and I certainly don't recommend this approach to everyone. In my experience is that if you're fighting for something you believe in — even if it means alienating some people along the way — things usually work out for the best in the end.

This goes BOTH ways my dear... I think I'm being treated unfairly with diversity and affirmative action. I'm "fighting back" because I believe in NO quotas or affirmative action. I'm definitely alienation people along the way. But hopefully, we'll someday take our country back from the 3rd world parasites invading it now. The women who want to be men who are lowering all the standards.

It goes both ways. You fight FOR something and there's someone else fighting AGAINST it. Neither should be silenced, yet that's what you want to happen to me, silenced.

"Fight back."
Trump says that he prefers to be cooperative and positive, but that sometimes it's necessary to be confrontational when the other side is treating him unfairly or trying to take advantage of him.

"The risk is that you'll make a bad situation worse, and I certainly don't recommend this approach to everyone," he writes. "But my experience is that if you're fighting for something you believe in — even if it means alienating some people along the way — things usually work out for the best in the end."
