compensationnoun
An allowance is a stipulated amount furnished at regular intervals as a matter of discretion or gratuity, as of food to besieged soldiers, or of money to a child or ward. Compensation is a comprehensive word signifying a return for a service done. Remuneration is applied to matters of great amount or importance. Recompense is a still wider and loftier word, with less suggestion of calculation and market value; there are services for which affection and gratitude are the sole and sufficient recompense; earnings, fees, hire, pay, salary, and wages are forms of compensation and may be included in compensation, remuneration, or recompense. Pay is commercial and strictly signifies an exact pecuniary equivalent for a thing or service, except when the contrary is expressly stated, as when we speak of «high pay» or «poor pay.» Wages denotes what a worker receives. Earnings is often used as exactly equivalent to wages, but may be used with reference to the real value of work done or service rendered, and even applied to inanimate things; as, the earnings of capital. Hire is distinctly mercenary or menial, but as a noun has gone out of popular use, tho the verb to hire is common. Salary is for literary or professional work, wages for handicraft or other comparatively inferior service; a salary is regarded as more permanent than wages; an editor receives a salary, a compositor receives wages. Stipend has become exclusively a literary word. A fee is given for a single service or privilege, and is sometimes in the nature of a gratuity. Compare REQUITE.

Megan Rapinoe:
If Megan Rapinoe and Alex Morgan were under the men’s contract, Megan Rapinoe and Alex Morgan would be making three times more, you can look at the total compensation and say,’ Oh, the women’s team made a little bit more.’ In that time that Megan Rapinoe and Alex Morgan made just a little bit more, Megan Rapinoe and Alex Morgan’ve won two World Cups and Megan Rapinoe and Alex Morgan’ve won just about every single game that Megan Rapinoe and Alex Morgan’ve played in. So the rate of pay is just so different. And it’s just so frustrating. To be honest, I think so many women go through this.Joe Biden threatens to cut US Soccers World Cup funding unless women get equal pay.
