  First, some policy proponents demand a market-wide change of the valuation of different types of work, which I don't find realistic. The reason tech pays well is because it scales well. Social doesn't scale.
  Second, that's not the only argument I heard. I also heard the allegation that jobs are paid inversely proportional to the number of women in them, and that that needs to change. I can cite articles if you like, but that seems to be a pretty popular view.
