Ah yes, Carrie Lukas, who never misses an opportunity to condemn Obama's health care plan as pure socialism and yet she and her husband choose to live and work in Germany where they and their children are covered by a national healthcare plan that even she admits provides some of the best and economically effective care that she and her family has ever received. But when challenged on her apparent hypocrisy, her response always implies that her views and opinions only apply to the situation as she sees it in the US and that the rest of world is free to do what they think works best for them (and it would seem, for Carrie Lukas and her family).

She is Carrie Lukas.
I disagree with "her" take.
She misses the main point of contention, women want equal pay for equal work.
Many are single mothers & they are the breadwinners. clo

In Part:

Should we celebrate the closing of the wage gap? Certainly it's good news that women are increasingly productive workers, but women whose husbands and sons are out of work or under-employed are likely to have a different perspective. After all, many American women wish they could work less, and that they weren't the primary earners for their families.
