Neither Answered Her Question of De Facto Universal Unionism

 Remember Katherine Fenton?  She's the 24 year old, pre-K teacher with a master's degree.   She's the fresh out of college, over-educated, under-intelligent, probable union member who is, in essence, a highly overcompensated, glorified baby sitter, looking after youngsters, who, until a relatively short time ago in America's history, were taught life's early lessons at home.  She's the...woman who attended college for presumedly six years to learn how to 'teach' three and four year olds in an educational system which doesn't expect its students to learn how to read until the fourth grade.  She's the one who read her cue card like Obama reads a teleprompter and asked the Presidential candidates the inane question concerning gender pay disparity, which wasn't really answered by either candidate.  In response to her question of  "In what new ways do you intend....?", Obama boasted of the first bill he signed into law and Romney went on about what he did as Governor.  Though each candidate's reply was relative to the question asked, neither was truly responsive.  Perhaps a better, responsively true statement would have been that pay parity is dependent on performance parity.  Compensation based on anything other than merit is trade unionism and fascism, if not socialism.
Obama's first signed legislation, the "...Fair Pay Act of 2009" sounds grand and great.  But I have always been wary of ANYthing based on fairness.  It is an arbitrary concept that cannot be quantified.  As I learned from one of my state school professors, whom I would confidently compare to any of Obama's or Romney's Ivy League instructors, "Nothing; and I repeat, nothing is fair."
Governor Romney's rambling reply of seeking and hiring women in numbers commensurate with the general
population.  He should have had the living visual aids ready to rise from the audience as he said, "These are the women whom I shall appoint and hire as part of my Presidential Cabinet, advisory staff and judiciary."



And he should have continued with, "And they will be compensated commensurably, as will the men I hire.  And I will utilize my position of President to promote that practice for the public and private sectors."
