This is why feminists, conservatives, and everyone else are constantly banging on about men. Because, at the macroeconomic level,
women simply don't matter. They are net beneficiaries, not contributors:
Those are the raw taxes paid by men and women. The tax gap has, oddly, never been an gender issue until now. When the tax money received by men and women is included in the equation, you can see that for most of women’s lives (except between 44 to 60), they receive more tax money than they supply the state with. Men, on the other hand, give the state more tax money than they receive from 23 to 65 years.
This is where it gets upsetting. As you can see, women’s short period of positive fiscal impact doesn’t come close to counter-balance an already massive overall negative impact. ”The net fiscal incidence on men is approximately zero when accumulated over all ages.” As such, society invests in young males, and they subsequently pay back society’s investment. Women bear massive costs to society, while we are taught to see them as underprivileged.
By the end of her life, the average woman will cost about $150,000 to the average taxpayer. This means that an average man is extorted $150,000 in his lifetime that will be directly transferred to women.
Which means that the only way women can help address the economic situation is
to cut benefits to them. Since women outnumber men in the electorate, that's not going to happen. Read the whole thing
