It's not about pay equity, it's about a small minority (employers/directors/shareholders) currently deciding what happens with the profits made from the labor of all the WORKERS. (And about that same small minority also deciding whether to burden society with a newly unemployed person by firing any worker.)

Those decisions should instead be made by the workers, democratically, in the same manner we pretend to glorify for civil society's governance: one person one vote.

This is how worker-owned co-op's operate.

Worker-owned co-ops were always allowed. Nothing stopping workers from starting them instead of working for traditional companies.
