So it’s not “empowerment”. It’s equal outcomes. It’s not “leveling the playing field”, it’s removing the playing field. If that’s your goal whatever, but dressing it up behind platitudes is dishonest.

> The measures she proposes would likely raise wages for everyone

Then it’s not realistic. How can companies afford to raise their highest expense?

This will put a cap on skilled negotiators since it creates a fixed range.

Call it a “benefit”. I could see how it “benefits” more workers, but I wouldn’t call it “empowering”.

It does make good negotiators more powerless.

How does this empower women? Sounds like lowering the bar for everyone.

The author even said she’s likely to undervalue her own worth. This proposal is a business straight up telling them their worth. Opposite of empowering. She wants prices listed like a McDonalds drive thru. She wants it easy.

Real empowerment would be teaching women how to properly negotiate a salary.

It’s not empowering to stay in t-ball.
