I'm retired with over 40 years of watching my wife's whole career in engineering. She & virtually every one of the women engineers who were contemporary collegues of hers were placed in lower pay slots within a pay grade and watched the men get raises and the women put on the "mommy track". Even though many of these women have far better analytical skills over a male countrrpart who may, may, could engineer himself out of a paper bag. They carried much more than their fair share of analysis workloads while the good old boys patted each other on the back and pulled each other along. It goes on to this very day.

How much time off did the women take vs the men?

Female pilots get paid exactly the same as men. Some get paid more if they are more senior than their male counterparts, less if junior to them. I'm perfectly good with it too as long as their checkrides are just like mine.

I figured I'd just go ahead and get all my polls out of the way today. This will be the third time I've conducted this poll, and here's my reasoning: first time was several months ago when it was clear to me that Trump would win and this was the reality we would be dealt. The second time was immediately after his election to see where we all stood. This third and final time will be to see where we all stand after having two months to gauge him as "presidential" in his victory.

The most amazing thing to me is that none of these options have changed, at least in my opinion, as all are still plausible, even the creation of a lot of jobs (I find it highly unlikely, but I admit it's plausible).

What do you think most likely to occur in a Trump presidency?

Note: Mods please delete the other thread. My mistake. Thank you.

By the time he leaves office he'll be the most hated man in America. By both Dems and Reps.

Interesting selection criteria. As we piece together the puzzle of how Trump won the election, that may be found to be a corner piece.

Luther, it is my strong belief, and has been for a number of years , that both parties have contributed to the downfall of this country. There seems to be a strong desire to stay in power, not rock the boat, and not be terribly interested in doing anything beyond getting re-elected and staying in office.

If you aren't part of the solution, you are part of the problem. And since neither party seems to want to be part of a solution, then new blood is needed. That is why I voted for Trump. He may or may not be the answer, but I am willing to pick someone who will look at it from a different perspective, and I am willing to give him a chance. I saw nobody else that looked feasible, other than possibly Cruz.

I agree with most all of this. It's like there are 20 people in a life raft and 10 are frantically rowing north and 10 are frantically rowing south. The life raft barely moves except in the direction of the occasional current. Sometimes I believe it's better to go nowhere than in the wrong direction, but I'm beginning to believe this is only true for a select few issues.

At least the current usually takes the boat in the right direction.

Your Cruz is my Sanders.

Weighing the question "How much will the candidate I endorse pee off everyone I despise?" was another major factor in Trump's win, in addition to the fears over immigration and cultural shift, as I pointed out yesterday.

Economics was about factor number 5,678 on the list of factors as to why Trump won.

Are you out of your mind? This was the number one reason Trump won. The middle class are suffering and politics as is has been wasn't working for a huge part of the country. Trump won because of economics.

We aren't dealing with the sharpest tools in the shed. I think you've nailed the top three motivators.

Just need to find that fourth corner piece.

I refuse to accept that anyone REALLY believes that nonsense.

And, yes, that's what it is: nonsense.

I hear Desitin® is a wonderful product..

Then you'd love the socialist paradise of Nazi Germany.

Between Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, and Idi Amin, they have murdered over 40 million people. That's what socialism end up as. A totalitarian dictatorship.

That's the effect of stealing people's money. In Venezuela, they can't even get Bread. The Socialist in Brazil got thrown out due to corruption. Sweden is now the rape captial of the world, and their economy is so strained because of the mass immigration.

Socialism is just the haves propping up the have nots.
