Barbara Kramer is economically challenged. Her thinking is perceptually based. Equal work for equal pay is anti-conceptual. It is undefinable. She is a feminist. Feminists are elitists and it is the poorer women who suffer from feminism (single mothers). Feminists resent being women. They do not like their station in life.
Kramer seeks to evade market realities. First, men do not get pregnant. Employers know that if they hire a woman (child bearing years), she may get pregnant and have to take time off from work. Second, most women’s income will be supplemental to their husbands. In other words, she will work for less money. It is women accepting lower pay that has caused the pay discrepancy.
The question is who should determine how much someone is paid? There are two options, the market or the government. Kramer resents reality (the market) determining her pay. She wants the government to determine how much people get paid. This can only be accomplished at the end of a gun.
If this Fair Pay Bill gets passed, two things will result. First, unemployment will rise among women. Kramer resents that the market discriminates. Second, there will be no incentive to produce because no matter how much you produce, your pay has been determined by the government, not the market. This means the market will become a place of mediocrity, not excellence.
The Fair Pay Bill would have the opposite result of what is intended. This is because of it being based upon a falsity of economic equality. The market is a place of inequality. People have different abilities and we benefit from these inequalities. Congratulations Senators Cocker and Alexander, you should be commended for looking out for our best interests.
