Lies, damn lies and #EqualPayDay [Darleen Click]
Even my local ‘news’ radio station, KNX 1070, read the usual political press release with the 78cents to $1 “wage gap” … Mistakes this big are not innocent. How many times have you heard that, for the same work, women receive 77 cents for every dollar a man earns?

“Hamas, Hamas, Jews to the gas” It was a beautiful day for soccer in the Dutch town of Utrecht. Spring sunshine filled the stadium as the local team, FC Utrecht, kicked off against perennial powerhouse Ajax Amsterdam. As the beautiful game slowly played out on the field, however, things in the stands quickly got ugly. “Hamas, Hamas, Jews to the gas,” sang a section of the home supporters towards the
