I saw a video several months ago where Walter Block showed how the wage gap between males and females comes about. Does anyone know where to find it?
Its called “The Ethics and Economics of Discrimination” and can be found here: http://mises.org/media.aspx?action=subject&ID=13. It was damn tricky to find.
Thanks! Looking for this aswell.
Didn’t he get in trouble for that at a college? lol
Not that time, but Thomas DiLorenzo subsequently invited him to present a very similar speech at Loyola College in Maryland where the PC police caught up with him.

Also, from the Block video, note that he contends that legally requiring equal pay for women would result in increased unemployment for women. Obama signed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act yesterday, making it easier for workers to sue companies for discrimination. So, Obama has already passed a measure that will increase unemployment (from what it otherwise would have been) for women and minorities.
That’s it! Thank you.
