    If you don't consider that women make 75cents on the dollar that men make, sure. In 2007, women were paid 77 cents for every dollar men received. The average 25-year-old working woman will lose more than $523,000 to unequal pay during her working life.These figures are even worse for women of color.

    The recent Supreme Court ruling Ledbetter v. Goodyear makes it virtually impossible for employees who face pay discrimination based on sex, race, ethnicity, religion, disability, and age to take action against their employers.
