Before I leave this Earth, I would like to know they have given women the same benefits and promotions as men.

Give us a chance to show you that those so-called protective laws to aid women - however well intentioned originally - have become in fact restraints, which keep wife, abandoned wife, and widow alike from supporting her family.

All I want to be is human and American and have all the same rights and I will shut up.
