ANSWER THIS

 If women do the same job for less money, why do companies, hire men, to do the same job for more money?

What the left never talks about is the Equal Pay Act of 1963 already ensures equal pay for equal jobs.  

The Equal Pay Act of 1963 is a U.S. law that prohibits employers from paying different wages to men and women who work under similar conditions and whose jobs require the same level of skill, effort, and responsibility. It is part of the amended Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938.1The act was an important milestone in gender equality, though of course wage gaps by gender persist.

Women working similar jobs, with similar experience, with similar duties and time on the job are by law supposed to be the same.

What the left does is they throw all occupations in one pot and say women are paid less.  Women traditionally (although this changing) went into lower paying occupations like secretaries, receptionists, etc  while men went into higher paying fields with some more dangerous.
