>If 1 out of a 100 has a superyacht and 99 live on foodstamps In this hypothetical, the median income will be very low. I'm not trying to be combative, I just try to correct misconceptions when I see them. It seems like some people have the misconception that the US is a place of a few superyachts and mostly foodstamps. That's not really the case. |

It's what i see on the news (not superyachts that much), on the "internet" (Reddit).
I understand reality is different, and that it's also different across states. But the stereotypes come from somewhere/something.
I'm sad that we don't have better workplace equality. We should take after NA in regulating resumes. We're allowed photos, names, gender, well anything we want to put on our resume we can. This could/does cause bias way too early in the selection process for jobs.
It doesn't explain why women, who on average perform better in school choose to pursue a career in Healthcare, which is "the worst" industry to work in over here. When there are so many other industries where they could make a great living with less stress, better schedules and more cash on hand.
