Women in Iceland claim they’re being paid less than men. To combat this, hundreds of women left work hours early to protest, leaving the men behind to actually work and earn money.
As economists and anyone with rudimentary reasoning skills knows, there is no gender wage gap. There’s a gender earnings gap, but this is due to the different choices men and women make in their careers. Choices like which fields they enter, whether they leave work after having a child, and oh yes, how many hours they work per week.
