• Annual salaries increase $110 for each one point increase in SAT math scores.

• On average, men should be paid $1,867 more per year because of their higher SAT scores.

• Underpayment of men for their net contribution to the economy is evidence of the "success" of affirmative action.

• Just in education costs, this cost more than $7 trillion.

Excluding Economics Majors, who are paid almost twice as much as their SAT Math Scores suggest they should be paid, increases r-squared from 0.5 to 0.8.

Males are "discriminated" against by $1,867 per year

The Occupational Outlook Handbook, US Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, January 1998 shows median incomes by major, and Table dtab130.txt (SAT Scores by major), which together illustrate that annual salaries increase by $150 for each 1 point increase in SAT Math Scores.  Table 34-1 in the NCES Digest shows the following starting salaries for males and females:

• Male Starting Salaries = $26,122
• Female Starting Salaries = $21,989
• Difference = $4,133, or 18.8%

http://members.easyspace.com/fathers/ind22_sat.htm shows that males scored 40 points higher than females in 1995 on SAT Math, which means that they should have earned $6,000 more than females.  The fact that the average annual starting salaries of males was only $4,133 higher than that for females is evidence of systemic discrimination against males.

• Female Starting Salaries = $21,989
• Amount by Which Male Starting Salaries Should Exceed Female Starting Salaries = $6,000
• Predicted Male Starting Salaries = 27,989
• Actual Male Starting Salaries = $26,122
• Amount by Which Males are "Discriminated" Against = $1,867 per year.
