Summary: how does (equal pay) == (legislated wages)

Could someone please explain to me how a program of equal pay for work of equal
value translates into a scheme of wage police ? Even radically socialist
places like Sweden don't do this. Is someone flying off the handle in
a typical arch-conservative manner, or is mere faulty reasoning at work?

If it's the latter, I'd like to hear it !
