Today I was reminded that in the 1960s, a person* could get a job that paid a liveable wage, and could with 6-10 months of income, save for a down payment on a house that they could reasonably assume would be large enough to raise a family and possibly even last long enough to retire in.
Why is getting back to that simple reality not enough to motivate every single voter and politician?
*generally white and male, but let’s set that aside momentarily

The #WageGap cannot be explained away by education, experience or perceived choices.
Even in states with large populations of Latinas in the workforce, rampant wage disparities persist, with devastating consequences for Latinas and their families.

Ah, the classic tale: while employees at low-wage firms are pinching pennies to afford ramen, 💰 CEOs are diving into Scrooge McDuck-style vaults of cash thanks to stock buybacks. Who needs economic justice when you've got "Executive Excess" to keep the yacht running? 🚤🙄

Modern misogyny: AI advises women to seek lower salaries than men

Samuel Irenaus Prime was a Presbyterian minister in Ballston Spa, NY. Here he comments on a recipe for happiness from Philipians 4:11-13, being content in poverty or plenty. But he warns it would be awful to tell those who are suffering in great want to be content with what they have and not to provide any relief.
How can you avoid emptry truisms to others without any relief, and at the same time, hold to contentment for yourself?

Samuel Crothers, Presbyterian pastor, on the servitude allowed in Deuteronomy. The service was limited to six years and resulted in abundant supply upon release. None of this in the American system.
Today, do many people turn to the Bible to see what we can get away with, despite neighbor’s cries?
How can you take pains to be fair to those who work for you or have jobs that serve you?

Workers in the Global South—from farm #workers to scientists—power the world economy but face a huge #wagegap. The South’s workforce provides a staggering 90% of the #labor to power the world economy but gets only 21% of global income: https://doi.org/10.1126/science.zlkj2u5 #poverty #inequality

Johann Arndt, German #Lutheran theologian, writes on “true Christianity”. Two elements: contrition, and making faith visible by going justice (charity and mercy to other’s needs). With these God is more pleased than with sacrifices.
Today, do we say God is more pleased that we would hold up these virtues?
How can you worship God in pure faith, exhibiting its visible effects?

Boss makes a dollar, while you make a dime - that was a rhyme for another time.
Now the boss makes a dollar while you make a cent - this is why you can't afford rent.

Women's "different" education (fields of study) or "more" education (advanced degrees) don't explain most of the gender wage gaps that are contributing most to contemporary wage inequality trends. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37061326/

The #WageGap isn't just a number; it's a story of inequality. Let's stop generalizing data and start disaggregating it to truly understand the challenges faced by AANHPI women in the workforce.

"One in 10 professional women need to work an extra job or side hustle to make enough money to pay the bills, twice the number of men, 67% of men earn more than $74k a year versus 39% of women"
A persistent issue that could be tackled by gov.....if the will was there.

New Leg. Proposes to Take Wall St Out of the Housing Market
The bill would ban hedge funds from buying & owning single-family homes in the US. If signed into law -could potentially increase the supply of homes available for individual buyers -would require hedge funds to sell off all the single-family homes -over a 10-yr period, & eventually prohibit such cos.-.
“The housing in our neighborhoods should be homes for people, not profit centers for Wall Street,” said Sen. Jeff Merkley. “Yet, in every corner of the country, giant financial corporations are buying up housing and driving up both rents and home prices.”
Without this legislation, "... large institutions are projected to own more than 40 percent of all single-family rental units in the U.S. by 2030"
This legislation should've been passed years ago
