Unequal pay for equal work


The video - an excerpt from Frans de Waal's TED talk "Moral behavior in animals" - is self-explanatory and enjoyable.

  2. Most women can identify with the monkey unequally paid, only we couldn't throw our paychecks back at Payroll -- we needed the money too much...

  4. I feel so bad for the underpaid monkey! I hope they compensated him later. That's just awful.

  5. It is a lovely video. Thank you.

    Those 400 dead women in Bangladesh are where all this women's liberation propaganda is leading the vast majority of women on this planet. Rich women never have to go out to work, and the middle class struggled for centuries to grow strong enough so that their women would not have to either. This liberation of women in the USA and Europe is a fight to become peasants again, to become real Vikings once more, wear tattoos, drink alcohol, and be ruled by queens, forget all that Old World prejudice and learning. This is the same liberation jargon that was used to drive the bloody American Civil war and dozens of military occupations since. Now Americans are in Afghanistan to liberate their women, not to make the world safe for UNICAL.
