711,
You again are cause for a good chuckle.
I never wrote that a female pilot could not spend lots of quality time with her children. In fact, I spend much more time with my kids than most career men working traditional jobs five days a week. However, my wife is there full time in my absence. I was addressing parentless households and the direct correlation to social ills in our society. That does not require scientific research, only a small dose of common sense.
I also never wrote a word about the Tea Party, guns, tax rates, deficits, or Mormons. So your claim of non-sequitur seems dishonest. It appears you know more about US politics than you claim. Even if you did not, understanding that Obama is a left-wing socialist intent on driving the US into European-style government is common knowledge around the globe. Americans reject this folly as you only have to look across the Atlantic to see where it gets you. Good luck to you!

While the US has its own financial problems, we are still the number 1 economy in the world, and leader of the free world.

FreqFlyer,
Since you asked, America ought to be looking at its own history as a guide for the future. Despite the retarded claims to the contrary, America was made great by the history which is unique to the US. Not all of it was pretty, but it certainly turned out a great country that most people around the globe would love to live in today. Obama is trying to make us more like the rest of the Western world, and I want no part of that low growth, high tax and entitlement model which is threatening to break portions of Europe right now. The Ozzies and the Canucks would be no better off were it not for their resource rich economies. Socialism makes the pie smaller and the tide lower. That ought to be obvious by now.
Sorry lady pilots, we digress...

leader of the free world
You might be "the leader of the free world", but I expect you don't include the USA as part of it, surely? Land of the free and home of the brave? Ask the TSA whether they agree with that particular sentiment.

Cxorcist,
Well said. But you forget that Obama has spent most of his term in office advancing the rights of women (not precluding female pilots) and minorities so we actually haven't digressed that much, or have we? Whether you're a male, or female pilot, everyone knows that Europe's woes stem from over-borrowing and not from socialism as you've alluded above. It's common knowledge.
In all fairness though, I understand your frustration about growth and taxes. Trust me, I get it, you’re angry and frustrated because your taxes are going up. Don't worry, you're not alone. Just remember, Obama isn't "raising" your taxes. Rather, it's the Bush Tax Cuts that are expiring. There's a big difference. You don't need to be that smart to see what's going on. But if you're absolutely intent on blaming someone, wouldn't it make a lot more sense to just blame some random female pilot instead?
Sorry ladies, I don't mean to digress here but what's the difference?
Obviously it would be a huge mistake to blame Obama for your "higher" taxes, or to suggest that he wants to take America down the same path as Europe. It would be equally foolish to try and extrapolate or predict America's future based on Europe's present financial woes. In fact, the only way your dreary high-tax, low-growth predictions about America's future hold is when you control for every variable that distinguishes America from Europe.
Without controlling for these variables, your predictions fall apart. In fact, today's unemployment statistics hint at a much different future. I know you're entitled to your own opinion which is more than most living across the pacific are entitled to but obviously Obama isn't taking the United States down the same path as Europe. Only idiots believe that stupid line. And by the way, the cold war ended. Please tell me you're not still afraid of socialism?

I love female pilots. I have flown with quite a few and have found them to be easily the equivalent of male pilots as one should expect any dedicated professional would be.
I am in totally awe of some female aviatrixes, especially the likes of the famous Hanna Reitsch.
If you have difficulty in your understanding of aviation and where the fairer sex fits in, you should study a little history going back to ferry pilots of WWII and earlier pioneers.
Don't embarrass or humiliate yourself with a personal lack of knowledge of those who have gone before and have dedicated themselves to making your flying job safer.
