After posting that, I looked back at the past few. Nothing seemed to stand out. Then again I really don't care to much about Rabbet, never even saw a post of his. | ||

Such a weak post from that guy, he received something for free because of an error but acts like a douche about it anyway On March 03 2012 07:19 Jisall wrote: Didn't read his other posts, seems a little harsh for a lil sarcasm. Can't claim it was too harsh if you aren't informed bro. Read through some of his posts, inflammatory and some misguided arguments | ||

Okay so what's your point? You half assed it and didn't stumble upon anything? So what? And after doing that you don't care too much? So why post? | ||

Women do in fact get paid less than men and, while Obama's plan hasn't been enforced yet, it is the kind of thing that leads to women getting paid less due to employers having to spend more on insurance and less on wages. There are also very similar kinds of things which result in women getting paid less such as government protection for pregnant women. I don't understand how a mod could ban someone for stating a relevant opinion which clearly has some reasoning behind it and put the reason for ban as nothing more than "Seriously? Come on now". Even if you don't believe the statement is consistent with reality, I don't see why it would constitute a ban as it's on topic and I can't fathom how it might offend anyone. It's a fact that women in general are paid less for equal work, and, even if you don't think it's the reason, forcing employers to give benefits to women makes sense as a reason as to why they would be paid less. | ||

S thisaying... Mods do not ban only because of personal differences. Anyone who thinks differently simply has to look at a few exchanges between jibba and I that happen on occasion. | ||

If an employer wants to offer a women an insurance plan, that insurance plan must cover contraception 3. Contraception, unlike things like cancer treatments or treatment for broken bones, are a sure thing if the women wants them. They aren't a thing that may or may not happen and if the women wants contraception, she gets it. This means that the price of the contraception must be included in the premium, making the cost of buying insurance for a women more expensive than buying insurance for a man. 4. To offset this, an employer needs to pay the woman less wages than the man 5. This is why women are paid less than men While the statement is wrong due to the fact that the policy hasn't been implemented yet, it certainly isn't worth a ban. | ||

Instead, it's a one line post that doesn't contribute due to it's inaccuracy and incendiary nature. OsoVega, read this. And yes, it is straight-up a discriminatory and retarded statement to make. There are numerous (primarily social) reasons why women generally fill lower-paying jobs proportionately lower than men, but to tie it to something like this, IMO, insane, and warrants actual evidence if you're going to make such a claim (as the banned poster did not). Regardless, it has little to do with why he was banned (again, see Myles' comment). Take the argument to that thread please. | ||

I thought it was interesting. Normally a post like the one he posted would get about a 2-day. I wasn't defending him, just making an observation. I got tired of looking at his posts after like 5 back. I trust your guy's judgement. | ||

It did seem harsh to me based on his one post, looked to be about a 2-day to me. Then again I don't know his post history as well as you so I trust your judgement in the end. The reason I brought it up was because it seemed out of the ordinary. Its like when (i forget the mod) posted a globe when some guy started spamming USA or something for stephano winning. Its just something out of the ordinary that I thought was interesting. It seems though, I don't quite understand your point, and you don't quite understand mine, so I'll conceed to you guys and let this die out. | ||
