Kentucky, Wisconsin, Nevada and Vermont all achieved better gender-pay equality than California, Colorado, and New York without the need to enforce private sect

Kentucky, Wisconsin, Nevada and Vermont all achieved better gender-pay equality than California, Colorado, and New York without the need to enforce private sector from revealing the salary offer. Is this the more depriving by state governments of the common workers’ privacy through needless encroaching laws? Who gains by this loss of privacy?

Proof? > Makes me wonder why California and New York are exposing the privacy part for through their state victims’ paychecks? What on earth are you talking about? How does posting a salary range "expose the privacy" of people? Also this isn't just about pay equity, it's about knowing what you are applying for before going through the process.

Are you looking at the chart correctly? Those states have the widest pay gaps with Utah ranked the highest.

  That chart is useless. It apparently only corrects for hours worked. What about years in the workforce, year in the job, occupational mix, job level?

Isn't California following Colorado's lead? > Meanwhile West Virginia, Michigan, Colorado, and Utah all achieved gender-pay equality as well as privacy without any pay transparency. Also, how do you know that gender-pay equality has been achieved?

I can't tell what you're arguing. No one is saying that any of those states have "achieved gender-pay equality". And CA isn't requiring your pay to be public knowledge, just salary ranges on job listings.

  "can't tell what you're arguing." I can; it's essentially a passive-aggressive conniption about an issue that doesn't exist that he has constructed to suit a political narrative glued permanently in his head about states that have in all likelihood, policies he views as not Randian/Trumpian enough.
