Question 2 of 11

According to a 2008 Census Bureau report, what state has the greatest gap in wages between men and women?

  1. California
  2. New York
  3. Texas
  4. Wyoming
Correct!

Women earn less than men in every state in the Union, but Wyoming has the widest wage gap of them all, with women earning a mere 64.3 cents on every dollar earned by men. That fact alone is bad enough, but it's downright tragic when you consider that Wyoming earned the nickname of "The Equality State" by being the first to allow women to vote, and for electing the first female governor in U.S. history.
