Of course, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who are

https://www.dispatch.com/news/20190329/targeted-ads-have-facebook-in-trouble-with-hud
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The
federal government charged Facebook with high-tech housing discrimination
Thursday for allegedly allowing landlords and real estate brokers to
systematically exclude groups such as non-Christians, immigrants and minorities
from seeing ads for houses and apartments. . .Just last week, Facebook agreed
to overhaul its targeting system and abandon some of the practices singled out
by HUD to prevent discrimination, not just in housing listings but in credit
and employment ads as well. The move was part of a settlement with the American
Civil Liberties Union and other activists.)

clear many obstacles for me. Neither of them attended college. My father died
suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21. He was the first of his ancestors
to earn a high school diploma. He worked in the office of a nasty chemical
plant. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. He did
not buy a new car until he was 47, and it was a bottom-of-the-line 2-door
Chevy. My mother never attended high school.)

— Why pay transparency alone won’t eliminate the persistent wage gap between
men and women – Nancy Modesitt (DIERSEN: If I had been a woman, the federal
government would have promoted me into its Senior Executive Service long before
I was 40 years old. I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21
in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b)
job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48,
and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32.)
https://phys.org/news/2019-03-transparency-wont-persistent-wage-gap.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The
federal workforce, where the pay gap is significantly lower than in the private
sector, can also be seen as support for the argument that pay transparency
helps reduce it. The federal wage gap ranges from about 4 percent to 9 percent,
when controlling for relevant factors that affect pay, compared with 8 percent
to 18 percent among all employers.)
