Data Point – White House Gender Pay differential

by

Obama White House pays men more

“I hereby call upon President Obama to promote gender equality by addressing a serious gender wage gap for women working on his staff at the White House. According to an analysis of salary data from the “2013 Annual Report to Congress on White House Staff,” the 228 female employees in the Obama White House are being paid a median annual salary of $65,000, compared to a median annual salary of nearly $75,000 for the 231 male White House staffers (see chart above). In other words, females working in the Obama White House are paid less than 87 cents for every dollar paid to male staffers, and there is therefore a significant White House “gender pay gap” of more than 13%. ”

One thing that has become abundantly clear – “Social Justice”, like a lot of other buzzwords / buzzphrases, is often only a “political advantage” club.   This is no different, apparently.  Oh, he’s dandy to use Government to brownshirt the rest of us to kowtow to any regulation his Progressive sycophants can dream up but Heaven (is that even still a permitted word?) help us if we point out that he can’t even live up to his own rhetoric.

    Co-founder of GraniteGrok, my concern is around Individual Liberty and Freedom and how the Government is taking that away. As an evangelical Christian and Conservative with small "L" libertarian leanings, my fight is with Progressives forcing a collectivized, secular humanistic future upon us. As a TEA Party activist, citizen journalist, and pundit!, my goal is to use the New Media to advance the radical notions of America's Founders back into our culture.
