You really nailed it with this.
Its hard to imagine that the party who give lip service to our Constitution have continuously and loudly objected to the most basic form of equality - equal pay for equal work.
Again, the difference is, you are looking at this from 'how you feel' about it.
I'm looking at it from what the results will be. The results will be the women will end up unemployed.
Again, I pointed this out before. Women who are paid less, there is a reason for it. If a man and woman are working 5 years, but the girl is gone for pregnancy twice, missing two years of work, who is more valuable to the company? The man who has been there consistently 5 years, or the woman who is gone 2 years of the 5?
Of course the guy is.
And that's the point. The reason any employer is willing to hire a woman, when she is not there as much, is because he can pay her a lower rate in accordance with her lower value to the company.
If you do what you want, and force companies to pay the same between the man and the woman.....
What do you think a company is going to do?
They won't hire the woman. Why hire someone who is going to be less valuable to the business, if you have to pay them the same as the man who is more valuable?
In fact.... they may not hire the woman just to avoid the possiblity of getting sued, regardless of her relative value to the company.
You have two equal potential employees. One has the possibility of suing the company if they want to, and the other does not. Which one do you hire?
The one that can't sue you. Less risk.
Again, this is the difference. Your policy will HARM women. Mine will not. But you don't care about that, as long as you "feel good" about so-called "equal pay".
It reminds me of the Euro gender equality law, that made it illegal to charge more or less based on Gender.
INSTANTLY.... all the auto insurance companies raise their rates on women. Women typically have lower insurance premiums. But due to leftist stupidity "feel good" policies, now women are charged just as much as men.
Leftist never help anyone. They only harm. That's what you people do! Just a fact. Same is true of this. If you pass this law, it will be harder than ever for women to find good jobs.
You do make some good points ... right now, we're seeing companies deny women the same insurance coverage in order to save money. They lie about, saying they're god tells them to lie, cheat and steal from their employees.
There will always be employers who look for ways to screw over some or all of their employers.
