What I say makes no difference. Start with Mr. President, in DC. The women on HIS White House staff are paid less than the men. He talks about equality in the work place, shouldn't he lead by example? And women fall for all his colorful RHETORIC. He is such a phony, as is EVERY other politician (Frank, Gretchen I'm sure don't agree), BOTH sides. How people can believe anything these people say is beyond me.
Even as bad as it is, it's still way ahead of what is in second place, although the gap is narrowing because of uneducated voters who believe these ELITISTS.

I don't know what else can be done. There are already laws that prohibit discrimination based on sex. Any more laws will probably just amount to job stimulus for attorneys. Social pressure is the best way to handle bad behavior. Publish the biggest offenders.
The other issue is that with every law passed, there is always unintended consequences. Men will be the preferred candidates because women will be too much trouble. And then there will pressure for quotas. And the beat goes on.

Bentley University - @ Deb-of-see-attleboro - read two articles if interested:

1) Bentley University - "Betsy Myers Aims to See More Women in Corner Offices" -Boston Globe article by Kathleen Pierce, Globe correspondent, June 12, 2012.

Um, there already is pay equity on the books, you cannot base pay on age, sex, race, religion, etc. There are several laws on the books for this. This article is a gross lie. The 79 cents on the dollar talking point is not unequal pay FOR THE SAME JOB, it is simply all women's salaries thrown into a pot and averaged them compared to all men's salaries thrown into a pot and averaged. It does not account for job type, hours worked, education, etc etc. When those things are accounted for the pay gap disappears almost entirely. This article is completely misleading, just like the talking point. This information is widely available elsewhere.

This link references a department of labor study that debunks the myth

Make pay equity (would need to define what that means) a condition for receiving government contracts and you'd see things change fast. You could also add in no government contracts to companies and institutions that don't have at least 30% women on their boards.

Debunking a new Romney lie :
http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/plum-line/post/the-morning-plum-romneys-false-scare-story-in-ohio/2012/10/26/5f8edbbc-1f58-11e2-ba31-3083ca97c314_blog.html

Romney told Ohioans that a major manufacturer is on the verge of moving all its jobs to China — but it isn’t true. Chrysler is looking to build Jeeps in China for the Chinese market, not to move American jobs there. In fairness to Romney, the news story that gave rise to this tale seems to have been sloppily written. But all the relevant facts were in the original article. And in any case, there are no indications the Romney campaign bothered to check out its preferred story before working it into his stump speech.

Let’s set the record straight: Jeep has no intention of shifting production of its Jeep models out of North America to China. It’s simply reviewing the opportunities to return Jeep output to China for the world’s largest auto market. U.S. Jeep assembly lines will continue to stay in operation. A careful and unbiased reading of the Bloomberg take would have saved unnecessary fantasies and extravagant comments.

John Sununu embarrassed himself again by insinuating it was raced based - This sickening idea that African American's are just some monolithic entity that only can move in one direction is FOOLISH and I am tired of it.
