Paycheck Fairness Act.
What's next? Having everyone get the same pay? Probably. I mean why should the CEO get paid so much more than I do. I mean -- it's only fair!!!
This is completely insane, to say nothing of out of control.

Sorry to hear that LLS. At this point, I wish nothing but but evil on the evil man occupying our White House.

I was once a federal contractor and had to report minorities.
I reported an Eskimo. I had a real Eskimo for an employee. He had followed his girlfriend back to East Tennessee.
An official from the Atlanta regional office of whatever checks out such things called me and grilled me thoroughly till convinced it was not a joke.
Eskimo’s had a higher value than others

This is the kind of sneaky stuff the Obamanoids are steering through Congress while we are being distracted by sensational racial stories.

Surreal. I’m 3/4 through Atlas Shrugged. Everyday I come to FR and sometimes can’t tell the difference between reality and fiction.

Ummm, the gub’ment already does this, and has for decades. The forms are called the I9, W-2, W-4, and you file your taxes. They know more about you than you know...

Those forms don't include information about race, sex or national origin.

I was just about to comment similiarly. Finally got around to getting a copy of Atlas Shrugged last week, I’m about 20% into this (Dagny Taggart just suggested calling her railroad the John Galt Line).
I’m amazed how this 50 year old book parallels what is going on in our country, today and the path we’re headed on.

That is illegal. It will lead to the government closing down businesses because they don’t have the required quotas.
To: Man50D
This is because the current user of the oval office is convinced in his racist heart that American businesses are run by racist White men who deliberately refuse to hire anyone who is not “their own kind.”

It's precisely the taxes and regulations over the last 40 years which have forced two income families. The 50's and the Ward and June Cleaver lifestyle are often denigrated We're about to go full circle. Because of taxes and regulations the 50s lifestyle is coming back: 50% of the jobs are permanently disappearing. Only this time, as long as Ward and June stay unmarried, they will get food stamps, free cell phones, internet, cable TV, healthcare, and subsidized housing.

Better look closer. On the I9 you must produce certain documents that can be used to derive that information. Drivers license and birth certificate contain that information or the ability to get that information.

These bastards are doing their best to turn us into a racially based country - like today's South Africa or Zimbabwe. The template is already there, dusted off, rested, and ready to go.

The Obama administration is backing legislation that includes regulations requiring U.S. businesses to provide to the government data about employee pay as it relates to the sex, race and national origin of employees. Sounds like racial profiling to me.

How long before the usual FReeper conformist line of “If you have done nothing wrong, you have nothing to hide.” gets trotted out?

This welfare society is unsustainable.
Welcome to the future. Hope you have food, water, and ammo.

And these business have preferential hiring of “their own kind,” which means if you are not a member of their tribe you have no chance of getting the government job they are seeking to fill. How this is not blatant discrimination based on race and ethnicity is beyond me.
To: rhombus
As a man, I gladly take less pay than any female counterpart in exchange for more time off to take care of things for my #1 and #2 jobs - Husband and Father. It doesn't bother me a bit. ;-) But we really don't have that option (in most cases), do we?
