14. But median wages for women are still less than what median men made in the 60s.
Edited on Wed Nov-30-11 02:49 PM by WildNovember
Plus all workers got an extra (unnecessary) 1-2% deduction from their checks starting 1983 thanks to Reagans so-called Social Security reform. And still got taxed on that income that they never saw -- no one ever talks about THAT "double taxation". Plus Social Security started being taxed too. Plus nickle and dime taxes increased.
