RE: MemeLogic - Wamens Sports
I completely agree with you about a living wage, if enough money is generated to afford a full time job salary. But if women's soccer generates 2.5% of what them men's WC generated you can't exactly pay them the same right? And then give the "equal pay" to that of the men is by definition equality of outcome.
Nope, you can't pay them the same - at least not now. They might be able to paid the same in a Utopian future where women generate the same revenue from commercials and merchandise as men. But until then soccer clubs can pay them a living wage. As any company does: you pay a person with the belief they will generate more revenue than you pay in wages. If at the end of the year/a few years they don't, they get fired.
