Lehigh Valley Rated 9th Worst-Paying Area For Women
According to The Philly City Biz List, women in the Lehigh Valley are only paid 72.6% what their male counterparts make. That explains why I'm doing so poorly in my new career as a gigolo. And I thought it was my looks.

does that number take into account years of experience and education?
The valley has a high number of retail and low skill jobs. They tend to go to females. Our high end jobs: enginners, doctors and lawyers are more male oriented(but changing).
Still it's a problem.We sould be trying to attract the high skill females. It is hard to change things in LV. Look at all the opposition to the new downtown.
The "new downtown" was created by sweeping out the trash - mostly minority merchants - to make room for campaign contributors who will poach business from other areas of the LV.
"We should be trying to attract the high skill females. It is hard to change things in LV. Look at all the opposition to the new downtown (read, $ 160.0 million dollar, Pennsylvania taxpayer-funded PALACE of SPORT)"
Wow!
I had no idea high skill females had such a hunger for ice hockey.

I don't know, but ASSUME (and we know that's not safe) that the report deals with similarly situated counterparts.

Nothing new there.
But financing it with tax money is disgusting.
Are those #'s from the old Lehigh Valley political lines or the new one that stretches into the ghetto's up in the Pocono's and eastern Berks County?

Bernie,anything different than when we ran out the indians and created the Northeast?
so what's the problem?
The problem is that the talent pool gets significantly reduced when you pay one half of the population better than the other half...
We are a mess because the men rule.
