Capitalism is not prejudice or misogynistic

I have always looked with skepticism on the claim that men are disproportionately paid over women for their talents.  Claims by feminists always would exclude factors such as risk pay and time away from work for raising children.  If it were true that women (of equal talent) were being paid less, then companies would be hiring women instead of men in order to gain a leg up on their competition.  In the end, you would have more companies with only women employees (until there were no women left to hire and companies then would reluctantly have to hire men to expand capacity).  Capitalism (unlike the policies of the looters) are truly color-blind and gender neutral.
