Lol you claimed no one says “women are paid less for working the same job as men” I said people and leaders say it all the time….then I cited examples of people and politicians saying it…..you’ve provided nothing but a bunch jargon and clearly showing your lack of understanding

>In theory, they could change some wording so that the debt doesn’t actually go away, but can’t be collected, so it technically isn’t debt relief.

Which would result in a metric F-ton of lawsuits on top of the political pressure on top of the lobbying on top of etc. etc. etc.

But the EU obviously isn’t nearly as intertwined as the US, and even if it would form a country tomorrow it would take decades or maybe even centuries to close the big cap between the rich and poor countries. The idea of one big european country is so young, that it simply doesn’t make sense to group the countries all together into one stat and say “thats how it is over there“, when the stat is far from reality on both ends of the spectrum. But the US has been a country for centuries, the regional differences aren’t as big and in the end does have a federal minimum wage, which is what this is about. But I do know what you mean, and I think a further unified europe is probably the only way to stay relevant in the future.

I imagine the lenders would sue the government if Biden tried to "indefinitely suspend repayments". When it is a temporary measure, the vultures lick their lips knowing things always go their way eventually. If it were effectively permanent, they'd riot. But knowing that both parties are bought and paid for it won't go that far.

I have faith neither in self-reported data from railroad companies nor in the captured regulatory agencies determinations of causes.

Everything is data.

or government's lack of investment in safety measures

tell that to the rest of society

I agree with you that the dude shouldn't have said what he said but to be clear retardation and autism are not the same thing... like at all.

Me too

>The EU isn’t a country.

Having lived in the EU and the US, they are more alike than you might think.

Comparing the US as a whole to individual EU states is a joke. Comparing EU states to US states makes far more sense when you consider demographics.

It does, though, make it much harder to use statistics to mislead people, which is why people like to compare the way they do.

then why the fuck would you use it in a derogatory manner?

I know, I agree it’s not?

Holy shit, the irony might be too much now

that first part is unnecessary and ableist. being autistic is NOT derogatory and shouldn’t be used as such. -person with autism

I don’t think you even know what you’re trying to argue

This is actually really cool, in terms of just literary analysis. If you're the first person to put up a visualization on colors in songs/albums like this then definite ultramega kudos -- and I think albums might be even better than songs for comparing across artists and careers.

To critique the visualization itself, I feel like there is a better way to show the evolution of a set over time that doesn't feel like they're all kind of in their own little corner, independent, on a white background (which makes the grey hard to see btw). If the emphasis is indeed on evolution, or perhaps a fan might, knowing Swift's bio, coordinate the use of colors to her perceived emotional state, then placing the colors vertically and connecting them smoothly along a horizontal time axis like a rainbow of thickening and thinning bands might work. Just a thought -- I'm sure you or others will have better ideas.

And good job of course for including the citation information on the image itself. (I'd recommend including a year or date or backlink, though, which helps people find your original post if they want.)

Mississippi is the dumbest state, no surprise there. If they could read this sentence or the graph they would be mad.

> “The wage gap persists when comparing women to men across similar education level, occupation, income and race.”

Jesus Christ, dude.

You’re out of your depth in the shallow end

There are indeed many different phenomena that skew the average male. Women choosing professions that make less money is among them.

The question is, of course, why is it that professions chosen by women almost always seem to be valued less monetarily, even when they’re among the most important and in demand jobs in society.

Taking care of families is another part of it.

And, while it’s not an issue for you, it is an issue for women and the government who have to plan and account for the personal and community impacts of an enormous section of society being less prepared for an independent and healthy retirement

“The wage gap persists when comparing women to men across similar education level, occupation, income and race.”

“Hillary Clinton called for stricter transparency laws to ensure women and men are paid equally for the same jobs”

“Democrats cite data that has found that the real median earnings of men and women who work full-time and year-round for the same amount of time”

I know reading is hard so I took quotes from these sources that explicitly say it, or imply it.

Do better.

Yeah, I guess the AP really does like Free Shoes.

A bunch of rich old fucks who never had to pay student loans are against hem debt relief? I’m shocked.

Supreme Court if your reading this, eat my ass
