There is no gender wage gap

If women only made 77 cents to a man dollar, why don't more business only hire women?
Wages are the biggest cost to a business, if women made less then if a company only hire women then the company would save a quarter of the cost and to the bottom line.
The feminist, celebrities and politicians telling people that the gender wage gap.
I believe that they have a math problem. The 77 cents on the dollar is calculated by using the medium of women that working full-time as of men working full-time. If a man earns 40,000 and a woman earns 30,800 then divided the woman salary with the man then you have a 77 cents per dollar idea.
This does not show gender wage injustice. They don't show occupation, position, education, or hours per week.
American Association of Women study shows that the wage gap goes down to 6.6 cents when you factor in different choices men and women make. The key word is choice.
This is not based on women making less per hour but on the jobs choices that men and women make.
In 2009, the US Department of Labor examined 50 peer reviews studies. They concluded that the oft-cited 23 cents wage gap may be almost entirely the results of individual choices being made by male and female workers.
Georgetown University provided what were the five best major to make money and the percentage of men and women that were majoring in these fields.
The number one major was Petroleum Engineering, 87% males got a degree in this.
The number two major was Pharmaceutical sciences, 48% males got a degree in this.
The number three major was Mathematics and Computer science, 67% males got a degree in this.
The number four major was Aerospace Engineering, 88% males got a degree in this.
The number five major was Chemical Engineering, 72% males got a degree in this.
If you can observe, only one of these majors when women got more degrees than men by a few more percentage points.  
We will look at the five worst paying majors.
The number one was Counseling and Psychology, 74% females received this degree.
The number two was Early Childhood Development, 97% females received this degree.
The number three was Theology and Religious Study, 66% males received this degree.
The number four was Human services and Community Organization, 81% females received this degree.
The number five was Social Work, 88% females received this degree.
The women own four of the five worst paying degrees.
This shows that men and women make different career choices.
If you look at the nursing field. Males make 18% more in general because they go for specialties, work longer hours, willing to relocate for higher pay in cities that pay more.
Professor Aikens said about the nursing field, "career choices and educational differences explains most, if not all, the gender gap in nursing." 
Why is there is gap? No one knows for sure.
There are so many variables that drives wages that no single study can cover them all.
Some studies talk about dangerous work areas like in oil ships, men work there.
Men are more likely to work longer without advance notice.
Harvard Economist, Claudia Goldin says even if the two lawyers had everything alike, if one of them are wanting to be on call and work long hours, then that person will get a higher wage.
This is not sexism but it is common sense.

The culture that goes against the Lord

I live in a culture that goes against the teachings of the Bible and Jesus. The media has a witch-hunt for Christians. There are some truth that the church is not doing well and the truth that I am a sinner.
Many people will say God is not real because of this and that so they reject God and the Bible. They will be anti-God and destroy the ideas of God. They will go after me and my friends.
We seek the Lord and we realize that we are sinful and God is real. We must repent and get right with God then we keep going forward.
The devil recruits people to go after the people of God but the good news is that God protects and love his people. Be strong, God's people.

Psalm 6

1 Lord, do not rebuke me in your anger
    or discipline me in your wrath.
² Have mercy on me, Lord, for I am faint;
    heal me, Lord, for my bones are in agony.
³ My soul is in deep anguish.
    How long, Lord, how long?

⁴ Turn, Lord, and deliver me;
    save me because of your unfailing love.
⁵ Among the dead no one proclaims your name.
    Who praises you from the grave?

⁶ I am worn out from my groaning.

All night long I flood my bed with weeping
    and drench my couch with tears.
⁷ My eyes grow weak with sorrow;
    they fail because of all my foes.

⁸ Away from me, all you who do evil,
    for the Lord has heard my weeping.
⁹ The Lord has heard my cry for mercy;
    the Lord accepts my prayer.
¹⁰ All my enemies will be overwhelmed with shame and anguish;
    they will turn back and suddenly be put to shame.

Peace

Thank You for Your glory
You are the wise God
May I follow You

Life throws curveballs
I can worry about dumb things
Here is my prayer to You

Give me peace now
I can rely on You

I must remember a day
Today is the only day
Tomorrow may not come

Give me peace now
I can rely on You

Why do I worry
Worry on trivial ideas

Give me peace now
I can rely on You

What is holding back the Arab world back?

There was a match in Judo. There were two people, one was from Israel and the other from Egypt.
The person from Israel won the match after the match, the guy from Egypt refused to shake the hand of the person from Israel.
The culture in the Arab land's is the idea of hating the Jewish. The Judo match was a prime example.
This is a major problem in this culture.
The media will not talk about this but they will say these things hold back the Arab world.
The ideas are the legacy of colonialism, unemployed youth, the Sunni-Shia sectarian divide, and it is not their fault.
The last 70 years, the Arab lands has kicked every Jews from their land, the total amount of people are 900,000 and still having heart in their heart towards the Jews.
Here is a list of the issues the have occurred in 70 years like lost human capital, expensive wars, intellectual life perverted by conspiracy theories, and search for a scapegoats.
The problem in the Arab world is due to their mindset, we all know the issue and it is called
anti-Semitism.  
Paul Johnson, a great history person says, "Whenever anti-Semitism took hold, social and political decline almost inevitably followed."
Spain expelled its Jews in 1492, the effect was to deprive Spain and it colonies, of a class already notable for astute handling of finance.
In Czarist Russia, the idea of anti-Semitic laws weakened and corrupted government.
Plus, many Jews left Russia which lost of intellectual and human capital.
Hitler didn't like the Jews but it hurt him. He kicked of Jewish scientist that made Atomic Bomb if he kept the Jews in Germany.
The Arab culture had issues with Israel before 1948 when Israel became a country.
In the year of 1929, the land of Palestine had an anti-Jewish Pogroms. There was another anti-Jewish Pogroms in Iraq in 1941.There was another anti-Jewish Pogroms in Libya in 1945.
Many will blame Israel for the Arabs hatred of them because of land for peace but we must look at this.
Israel offered the Arabs land for peace. During this time, the people of Egypt still hated the Jews as much as before.
Paul Johnson says, "Anti-Semitism: a "highly infected" disease capable of overwhelming intellectuals and simpletons alike."
For the Jew hater, every crime has the same culprit and every problem has the same solution.
There is no great college in the Arab world. There is no science break news or writings.
The United States Patent office in 2015 had 3,804 in Israel and only 30 in Egypt.
By shaming the Jews, the Arabs will lose. The Jews are good with water and this has helped out Syria and Jordan.
The sad thing is that people in Egypt only think of the Jews as someone that hurt them, even if the Jews will not.
The Arabs need to look at Israel and learn from them but the only thing they do. They only want to hate and not learn.

Love the truth

If anyone loves the truth and see lies then it hates the soul. I see this world getting darker and it makes me sad, so when I read Psalm 5, I have the same heart as David did.
My country is embracing all type of evils and people seems to hate the Bible and God of the Bible more.
I ask the Lord to lead me to his path and many times, I almost stumble but the Lord helps me.
God gives me the wisdom to know that the evil doers will fall. I don't want to be them when they have to face God.
It is nice to know that we can worship and obey the great God of the Bible.

Psalm 5

¹ Listen to my words, Lord,
    consider my lament.
² Hear my cry for help,
    my King and my God,
    for to you I pray.

³ In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice;
    in the morning I lay my requests before you
    and wait expectantly.
⁴ For you are not a God who is pleased with wickedness;
    with you, evil people are not welcome.
⁵ The arrogant cannot stand
    in your presence.
You hate all who do wrong;
⁶     you destroy those who tell lies.
The bloodthirsty and deceitful
    you, Lord, detest.
⁷ But I, by your great love,
    can come into your house;
in reverence I bow down
    toward your holy temple.

⁸ Lead me, Lord, in your righteousness
    because of my enemies—
    make your way straight before me.
⁹ Not a word from their mouth can be trusted;
    their heart is filled with malice.
Their throat is an open grave;
    with their tongues they tell lies.
¹⁰ Declare them guilty, O God!
    Let their intrigues be their downfall.
Banish them for their many sins,
    for they have rebelled against you.
¹¹ But let all who take refuge in you be glad;
    let them ever sing for joy.
Spread your protection over them,
    that those who love your name may rejoice in you.

¹² Surely, Lord, you bless the righteous;
    you surround them with your favor as with a shield.

Don't forget about intercessory prayer

I believe actions are important
But don't forgot about prayer
For it grease the wheels

First of all do this
Must be in the Will of the Lord
Connect earth to heaven

Be lead by the Spirit
To give insight in the closet
To be alone with God

We must believe in intercession
Can't explain this idea
But God moves upon our prayers

Pray for your lovely neighbor
That Jesus would enter her heart
You know Jesus is only cure for her

Pray for future husband or wife
That God would make them pure
So you will have a great marriage

Pray for your future job
That God will guide you
That you will have favor

Pray for someone in hard times
God will comfort this person
Thru your prayers

Pray for a person is doing well
Many times people fall in good times
Have them be humble in all state of being

The lesson is this
Never stop praying
Build our spiritual muscles

How does the Minimum Wage work?

The hot topic of today is about raising the Minimum Wage. The big wigs in the government are pushing this idea and many people think it is a good idea. We need to examine this idea.
If the government raises the Minimum Wage then it starts a line of change reactions. I will talk about some of them to you.
The people that earn Minimum Wage most likely are High School Students, College Students and people want part-time work.
The Minimum Wage jobs are the level one type of jobs in the company and it teaches job skills like good customer services, delivering results, manage money responsibly and to be a team player.
The next question in my head is this one. If the government gets in there and controls the Minimum Wage.
I have example one, the restaurant job where the profit level are not great. If you don't know. Restaurant only makes 5 in profit in every 100 dollar transactions.
If the government raises the wage of tipped workers 200% then what will happen to these types of jobs?
The owner of the restaurant will increase the price or hire less people.
The owner can't raise the price because if the food is too expensive, then no one would ever eat there.
The answer is this, they will have less people work there or reduce hours. Or the company will turn to self-service which makes less people working in the food joint.
Congressional Budget Office has reported Minimum Wage Hike might destroy 500,000 jobs.
