💬 Do you think freedom creates prosperity — or follows it? #AcademicSky #math #economics #womeninscience #edusky #science

Economists erased women from the story. GDP ignored their labor. Historians idolized “great men in bronze.”

But without women’s #independence, prosperity never takes off.

In Britain, women worked for wages, delayed marriage, and kept control of their #money.
That freedom → smaller families, higher wages, apprenticeships, savings, democracy itself.

Freedom wasn’t a luxury. It was the spark.

What if the Industrial Revolution wasn’t powered by coal or colonies… but by women with wages in their pockets?

The #economy is #unfair. The rules are tilted.

But you still have moves.
And with the right strategy, you can play the unfair game—and win.

YouTube video by Breaking Math Robin Hood Math

Once upon a time, a wizard wrote a book about "Robin Hood Math." He stole from the rich (in proofs) and gave to the poor (in understanding). Now, @profnoahgian.bsky.social can call himself a MatheMagician.
