What's this?

Yeah, it's ludicrous


There's this argument that if things aren't exactly equal then there is something wrong and that should be corrected by means outside of the marketplace eg, send money to fix this social issue. I disagree with that line of argument.

I'm going to guess that the WNBA is heavily subsidized by the NBA but they may have their reasons, relatively inexpensive pc protection or maybe just good pr.

"Putting in as much work as the men" is completely irrelevant in this case.
