As is the case with many Middle Eastern nations, women are nowhere near equal to men when it comes to basic freedoms and rights that we take for granted every day.

I have noticed a marked improvement in FEMA and with the coordination of FEMA and the State agencies.

Let us face it, the U.N. has failed. It has failed in its mission to promote world peace.

On the other end of the spectrum, these women who do live long enough to collect Social Security face the challenge of being disproportionately dependent on the Social Security system for retirement income.

The women who pass away before they receive Social Security, for them this is nothing but a tax from which they or their family will never receive a benefit.

While women certainly have made great strides toward pay parity in the past 30 years, there is still a gap in earnings between men and women in equivalent professions.
