    So what's going on with the first group then? Are they getting off easy cause they are chicks or because they're Army or something?

    Or is this the same group of people but as you say they cleaned everything but failed anyways so they are cleaning it again on the weekend?

    In a similar way, freedom of religion is not now and has never been 'the government cannot force you to violate your conscience.' Freedom of religion is that the government shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.

    The government made a law that people can't blow other people up with bombs.
    This law does not respect an establishment of religion, therefore it does not violate (that part of) the First Amendment.
    American citizen Dzhokhar Tsarnaev's conscience told him that he should set a bomb at the Boston marathon.
    The government sentenced him to death.

    Mr. Rubin, therefore, has three choices.
    1. protest the government forcing people like Mr. Tsarnaev to violate their conscience
    2. stop protesting people the government forcing people like Unnamed Baker X to violate their conscience
    3. keep being a hypocrite

    Mr. Rubin's problem here is not that he is a bigot, Islamophobe, etc. His problem is that he is fundamentally misinformed about what the Constitution actually says, and that he hasn't thought his positions all the way through.

    I don't remember you saying that the wage gap is only 5%. Did I miss that post?

    I went into great detail most recently here. Cliff notes is that it's another version of confounding variables. We observe that x causes z and y causes z, but that doesn't mean x DOESN'T cause y, and if we control for y we may be doing so mistakenly.

    In this case, we see without a doubt that gender causes a wage gap, or at least those of us who care to see that. With that removed from all argument, don't we have reason to believe gender also causes a job title gap, an industry gap, and so on? If I as a business owner can't even be bothered to exchange the same objective, quantitative value for your work (that is, that value that is easiest to verify), why would I do so in more nebulous and qualitative value like promotions, hirings, etc.?
