The claim is true—in a sense. Women do make $0.79 to every $1.00 a man makes when factors such as hours worked, education earned, or positions held are not considered. This is called the uncontrolled gap. But when all factors are the same, women make more than $0.99 to every $1.00 a man makes— a difference that’s within the margin of error. In other words, the “wage gap” between men and women is virtually nonexistent, and even if a slight gap exists, there is little proof that injustice is to blame.
Where are the citations?!?!?
