Hasn't the brainless bimbo heard about affirmative action??. Women get all sorts of special treatment and they still can't advance. Problem is they don't have the math brains for technology or business jobs and that's where the money always is.
Clinton: 'It's not smart' to hold back women | TheHill

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton charged that women are still not treated equal to men in the U.S., saying all that's needed "is a fair shot" to advance.
"Women share the drive to be entrepreneurs and builders," Clinton said to the assembly in Louisville, Ky. "To be agents of change and drivers of progress, makers of peace. All they need is a fair shot."
She added: "But too many women in too many places still face ceilings that hold back their ambitions and aspirations that make it harder to pursue their dreams and potential and that's not only somewhere far away it's here at home."
Women hold a majority of lower wage jobs, many of which rely on tips, Clinton, a favored 2016 presidential candidate said, driving home the point that "today it's still not equal."
She went on to charge that holding back women is "not smart," instead it hurts a country's ability to thrive.
"No country can truly thrive by denying contributions of any of its people let alone half of its people, Clinton said to applause.
Her solution: Raise the minimum wage, give parents flexibility on the job, paid family leave, quality affordable childcare, and STEM eduction and mentoring.
