YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

There is a way to legally pay women less than men. Hannah Cranston, Brett Erlich, and Francis Maxwell, the hosts of The Young Turks, tell you how. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

“A federal court ruled on Thursday that women can indeed be paid less than men for doing the same job, based on what their previous salaries were.

According to the Associated Press, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled on Thursday to overturn a 2015 ruling from a lower court in California.

The 2015 decision, made by U.S. Magistrate Judge Michael Seng, stated that basing women’s salaries on their prior salaries was inherently discriminatory, since they likely faced pay discrimination due to gender bias at their former jobs. But with this new ruling, that’s no longer the case.

(TL;DR: If a woman was paid less in one job ― from pay discrimination, for example ― she may now face that same discrimination in another, and it will be totally legal.)”
