How can so many people get this so wrong? The latest example is in a recent New York Times op-ed, where Stephen D. King (chief economist at HSCB!) writes: "Women now make up the majority of the American labor force."
No they do not. In 2012, women accounted for 46.9 percent of the American labor force. Of the 155 million in the labor force, there were 73 million women and 82 million men. Men account for the 53.1 percent majority of the American labor force.
