This is textbook fascism as the government doesn't own the means of production but the government manages the means of production. Private companies should be free to negotiate with private citizens in order to agree on a compensation plan. That is called free-market capitalism. The modern left is the fascist, totalitarian movement that they claim to oppose. What a joke.

I don't think Kammy has ever read/heard about this 1963 law:
The Equal Pay Act of 1963
Excerpt:
"(d) Prohibition of sex discrimination
(1) No employer having employees subject to any provisions of this section shall discriminate, within any establishment in which such employees are employed, between employees on the basis of sex by paying wages to employees in such establishment at a rate less than the rate at which he pays wages to employees of the opposite sex in such establishment for equal work on jobs the performance of which requires equal skill, effort, and responsibility, and which are performed under similar working conditions, except where such payment is made pursuant to (i) a seniority system; (ii) a merit system; (iii) a system which measures earnings by quantity or quality of production; or (iv) a differential based on any other factor other than sex:
Provided, That an employer who is paying a wage rate differential in violation of this subsection shall not, in order to comply with the provisions of this subsection, reduce the wage rate of any employee."
========================================================================
It has been the law of the land since 1963, which is over 55 years ago.
Her ignorance is inexcusable.
