Germaine Greer: Housewife Pay
on Sunday, November 3, 2019Germaine Greer Money Quote saying there is no job security as a housewife and it can mean a woman can lose the unpaid role without severance pay. Germaine Greer said:
“The housewife is an unpaid worker in her husband’s house in return for the security of being a permanent employee: hers is the reductio ad absurdum of the employee who accepts a lower wage in return for permanence of his employment. But the lowest paid employees can be and are laid off, and so are wives. They have no savings, no skills which they can bargain with elsewhere, and they must bear the stigma of having been sacked” — Germaine Greer

Hillary Clinton: Trump Tax Returns
on Saturday, October 26, 2019Hillary Clinton Money Quote saying Donald Trump’s tax returns will expose his actual wealth is different from his claims and therefore illuminate his honesty and who he does business with. Hillary Clinton said:
“You’ve got to ask yourself, why won’t Donald Trump release his tax returns? I think there may be a couple of reasons. First, maybe he’s not as rich as he says he is. Second, maybe he’s not as charitable as he claims to be. Third, we don’t know all of his business dealings, but we have been told through investigative reporting that he owes about $650 million to Wall Street and foreign banks. Or maybe he doesn’t want the American people to know that he’s paid nothing in federal taxes” — Hillary Clinton
