66. Republicans would use that graph for a completely different purpose.

That graph to them, shows just what is wrong in America today. Barefoot and pregnant is the only jobs program they support. Send all those women home, and the men will magically get all of those jobs.

No need for unemployment benefits if you fire half the workforce, just as the women were sent home from the defense industry as the men returned from WW2.

Domestic tranquility nationwide will be assured!

Do I need a icon?

Use it freely for the above.

They say it's the solution to the problem of unemployment and all other social ills. No kidding. They either never knew, or reject the reasons behind the women's movement. This is what we're up against, folks.
