Why did he do this? Because despite the abundance of evidence on pay discrepancy between men and women, he still considers it a myth spun by liberal special interest groups.
Women. What an annoying special interest group, right?
Good thing he signed it in the middle of the night or people women might actually have been present to contest it.
So if work place discrimination is just a myth, what’s the real reason for the unequal pay?
“Take a hypothetical husband and wife who are both lawyers, But the husband is working 50 or 60 hours a week, going all out, making 200 grand a year. The woman takes time off, raises kids, is not go go go. Now they’re 50 years old. The husband is making 200 grand a year, the woman is making 40 grand a year. It wasn’t discrimination. There was a different sense of urgency in each person.”
That’s right, women are just lazy. They take so much time off from work, just to, you know, raise kids and stuff.
Apparently it’s okay to create a hypothetical story, apply it to all women, and legislate law based off of it. Glad to see anti-intellectualism is still burning strong.
