FemiStats: white women earn less than minority men when education is equal; 97% of U.S. counties now w/out abortion providers! Shame!

In general, women in the most economically advantaged race groups usually earn less than men in the most disadvantaged race groups. For example, a white female with master’s degree is expected to earn $2.4 million over a 40-year work-life. In comparison, a Hispanic male with a master’s degree is expected to earn $2.8 million.

Ninety-seven percent of counties outside metropolitan areas now have no

abortion providers at all. This year alone, 61 laws have been enacted to restrict abortion.
