Argumentative Essay
In the case, Ledbetter vs. Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., we are presented with a couple of
issues. One issue is that Lilly Ledbetter’s salary was much less than her male coworkers when
her expiration date with Goodyear was approaching (Legal Information Institute, n.d.). Another
issue presented in this case is that Ledbetter was unwillingly reassigned to an unwanted job
within the company. An impartial presentation of the controversy may be presented as income
inequality and gender role diversity. Even though Ledbetter was the only woman to work as a
production manager, she got paid less than her male coworkers. The setting for this case can be
both capitalism and socialism. On the capitalism side, we can see it as a self-act because Lilly
Ledbetter wanted to gain something personally. She was seeking respect and equal pay. As an
employee, you would expect all coworkers with the same experience to get paid the same
amount, which was not the case for Ledbetter. As a supervisor, Lilly Ledbetter was getting paid
less than the lowest-paid male supervisor (Brake & Grossman, 2007). On the other hand, we see
socialism in the sense that this case helps people as a whole. Ledbetter helped those who might
be struggling with something similar or for future claims by filing this complaint. Because of this
case, the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act was formed. A few laws listed that affect the business's
operations are the Civil Rights Act Title VII, the main federal anti-employment-discrimination
statute (Brake & Grossman, 2007), the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act changes federal law to restart
the clock on the deadline for suing each time an employee is paid a paycheck affected by an
allegedly discriminatory pay decision (Bader, 2013), and the Paycheck Fairness Act, a bill that
would make changes to the Equal Pay Act, this Act would completely eliminate the cap on
, compensatory and punitive damages for one special category of discrimination plaintiff—those
worked as a manager for 19 years for Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. According to Cimpl-Wiemer
she had "high level of seniority, excellent performance reviews, and the second-highest score on
