Women in the U.S. Economy
I was just watching U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama on CNN where he is campaigning in Albuquerque, N.M. He is speaking to a working women's group and mentioned a few interesting numbers.
In the U.S.:
62% of women earn half or more than half of their household income; and
U.S. women earn 70 cents for every dollar that a U.S. man earns.
Which number surprises you? Or is it a surprise at all?
