Women's equal pay bill would "place unnecessary burdens on businesses"

[$tevie]

Much like the use of illegal immigrants for low pay, ending this kind of cr@p does affect our economy. I'm not defending the practice, but given the nature of business to pinch every last penny at the expense of employees in order to line their executive's pockets, it's easy to imagine lay-offs resulting at companies who "can't afford" to pay fairly. This is just another symptom of something much larger that nobody can agree on how to fix.
