[i]"What you did not respond to was how your (Rand's) philosophy accounts for..."[/i] we were not talking about Rand. I saw no need to bring her up. Are you referring to how I said that people should not be treated as criminals for simply being more successful than others? That those who earned their money fairly and squarely can possibly be admired?

That sort of idea goes back through the ages. It is actually the default idea of people unless they are brainwashed at a young age into believing propaganda. Usually from religious cults or secular cults like the Marxists.

Women earn less money for a variety of reasons. For the longest time, they pretty much stayed home and earned nothing. Over time, they ventured more and more into the workforce. It takes time to catch up.

Also, women tend to be less likely to be geniuses than men. There are far fewer female geniuses than male geniuses. There are also far fewer retarded women than retarded men. Meaning that they are less likely to be on the extremes of high or low intelligence than men.

Women also tend to be less aggressive than men. They are more likely to prefer safety. To be a successful entrepreneur requires one to take considerable risks. Men are more likely to take risks. Guess who chased after the wooly mammoths and guess who stayed back in the cave to watch after the young?

Speaking of the young, if a woman interrupts her career to take some time to raise small children, that is time that she is not constantly updating the job skills. If she has a job like an engineer or a computer programmer, her entire field can drastically change in the few short years women typically take to raise small children.

Also, there are a lot of high paying physical jobs that many women simply do not possess the physical strength to perform on. Can you imagine your mom operating a jackhammer or swinging a sledgehammer?

lol!

is that nervous laughter, Lego?
