A primary factor that has created & maintained systemic economic injustice over the last 40 years has been a message given to many American women that they shouldn’t weigh in on certain issues because “You just don’t understand economics.”

If you tell someone something over a long enough period of time ... eventually they'll start to believe you ... Women do the shopping and pay the bills in most American households ... saying woman don't understand economics is nonsense!

Yup. Meanwhile when you’re born with a silver spoon, you’re allowed 6 bankruptcies and people still think you’re a business genius. 🙄

Great concise summary of his real property holdings. Big takeaway: His 2 largest assets are 30% interests in 2 buildings — w/o controlling interest, it’s hard to fuck that up. Passive income just rolling in. #UBIForAll not just silver spoon babies. forbes.com/sites/danalexande…

That’s a systemic problem that goes beyond Trump. Once you’re in the club in America, the system is very compassionate. You can win or lose and still stand a good chance of continuing to operate, starting over etc. Others are denied the same economic grace periods & buffers.

Who told you that? Where are you getting this from? That's so retro.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Agreed. Also an American public high school is more likely to teach home economics than economics. Things would be better in terms of personal debt, etc, if children were taught Econ from at least middle school. But that might create too much social mobility for powers that be!

Women like you are proving them wrong!
Replying to @marwilliamson
I believe statistics show that is accurate. In fact I would venture to say most women don't care for the subject.

In your case it's painfully true. DOWsing Crystals have nothing to do with the DOW Jones.
