hot tip: if you are going to sue your employer for unequal pay, hire a lady lawyer. it's much cheaper. but walker is not tonight's lady hero. no, that honor goes to the man who led the repeal of the equal pay act, wisconsin state senator glen grothman who knows that wage discrimination is just a million. take a hypothetical husband and wife who are both lawyers. the woman takes time off, raises kids, is not go, go, go. the husband is making $200,000 a year. the woman is making $40,000 a year. it wasn't discrimination. there was a different sense of urgency in each person. you could argue that money is more important for men. [audience reacts] exactly. women don't care about money. i'm not even sure they cash their paychecks. besides, good luck even finding them in those handbag, am i right, fellas? you see, grothman understands that money is a guy thing, like football or buffalo wings or deciding what is fair compensation for women. besides, us dudes need the cash to impress the ladies. they have way less money for some reason.

a lot of the women, there is unequal pay. and there are things that can be done about that.t dictating. look what women have done. i've worked for women almost all my life. they all got paid more than me. but they have started their own businesses. i mean most smalled byes are started by women because they don't want to be in the marketplace where they are subject to have -- they make as much money as their talent takes them and that's a market response. it may not be a complete response but we've come a long way. >> this is what market does. >> right. >> what incredible is how little progress that's been made. half a cent tri now sense we passed the equal pay act theda. has narrowed by half a cent in half a century. that's what the market does when left unregulated to its own devices. so clearly there needs to be intervention here to turn that around. talking about the same jobs. talking about equal pay for equal work, not different kinds of work. >> wall street said, just trust us. how did that work out? >> speaking of money, former gingrich donor sheldon addleson is putti

we're obviously -- baseball games don't really matter if people are unequal, but inequality is a big topic now, not only in america, but the rest of the west. many economists say, well, inequality doesn't matter because the price of material goods has gone down so much that the poor and rich have a big screen tv, they have cable tv. they have internet access. do you think that that is true, and are there places where you shouldn't be able to buy something that is better than what you get if you don't have the resources to pay for it? >> guest: right. a great question. that's the heart of debates about equality and inequality and democracy. first, a word about sky boxes. when i was a kid, i grew up in the midwest near minneapolis. i was a fan of the minnesota twins. in the mid-60s when i was going to games, the difference between the best seat in the house, the box seat, and the seat in the bleachers, the cheep seats, was, can you guess? >> host: i read the book, $2. >> guest: $2 for a box, and $1 for the beechers. everybody got rained on, everybody got wet if it rained, and over the

in particular because evolution requires millions of years of death for us to get from and unequal to the law schools. millions and millions of years, but the bible is very clear that death comes after at its and regard death is the way to spend that will come after. and so that's a fundamental conflict, and why evolution in the sense cuts to the nation of gospel, because jesus came to pay the penalty first and then death, when it's judgment day, that's the end of death. so death is an intrusion into the world. it's not the means god used to create. god, after he is creating, this is good. when he has created everything, he said it was very good, and so to have a death driven, wasteful process of survival of the fittest and disease and bloodshed is inconsistent with a holy, loving god who is eyed is on the spare. so when you view creation from that perspective, it gives it an explanation for why there is death. it's not what was originally intended. we were meant for life. >> "unraveling the origins controversy," david dewitt, when you teach this book in your biology class, what is on

lincoln memorial, using that space to display their place in the nation when that place was so treated unequally, was incredibly powerful. but could it be recreated? and this is what i will conclude with, is to think some about could that happen again, that special power? there were special circumstances, it was the eve of war. it was a situation in which there were grounds to negotiate. it was a situation in which you had extremely savvy organizers who were willing to play a very tough game. and in its wake, in some ways, i think that potential was no longer as possible. and if we think about the 1963 march just briefly, and some of the characteristics of it, we can think about why that potential became less powerful. on one hand, one thing that became clear is that future presidents did not want to be put in this position. and they decided that would be better to not get so concerned about any potential demonstration, that they would need to go to such efforts to force its cancelation. so they got much better at figuring out whether or not such marches would result in real threats. and you can
