You Go Girl!
Women have gradually outpaced men in earnings and educational growth in the last few years*. The evidences of gender role reversal are now impacting the economic survival of the nuclear and extended families of the nation. Women are stepping up and helping in many new ways as society adapts to these difficult financial times on Main Street.
With the alarming rate of recent men's job losses straining the middle class American family’s ability to keep the dream alive, women have stepped up to the task and in many cases saving the day (or house) by going back to work in key positions.
While much is still yet to be done to close the fair earnings gap, American women are rapidly becoming the leadership engine for many companies as the face of the work force goes thru rapid change. Perhaps this is one bright spot to help bolster the economic future of the nation. "Rosie" to the rescue again just like their grandmother's did in America's greatest generation! You go girl!
