Attention, it's now 2015 and the White House still pays women 13% less than men for the same position. That could be fixed with a simple order. So why isn't it?Obama can certainly do more and I certainly will call out hypocrisy even if it comes from his administration (the big difference between you and me) but let's not skew
If you want to be so incredibly stupid as to bring up things from a hundred years ago...there were company stores that charged such high prices that a family pretty much became slaves to the company.
The work week might be 60 hours long and no overtime.
There was rampant child labor for doing the same jobs as men but for less pay.
There was no workmen's comp.
There were no healthcare benefits.
All of this didn't matter one bit if you were a man, woman, or child. Like I said, it is now 2015. Originally Posted by JD Barleycorn

White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest argued that the White House has a "significantly better" record than the private sector, using as an example the fact that senior advisers Dan Pfeiffer and Valerie Jarrett make the same amount. Still, he said, there's more that can be done.
"The White House is doing appreciably better than the country is doing more broadly, but we have a lot more work to do," he said.

The rest of your rant I guess some counter argument to all that unions and dems have done to provide worker rights and benefits is rambling, incoherent, and make no sense. Try again.
