Also, how are employers supposed to "demonstrate" that their salary decisions aren't based on gender and who's to say that small businesses just say "fuck it" and stop hiring females all together so they have one less government regulation to deal with?

Documentation, really.
I mean, most employers have to have a strongly documented case for dismissing an employee already. Why not start documenting the successes of an employee? The information's already there. Often times it is documented in performance evaluations, or progress toward goals. They have to use it for other things, like promotions or deciding who gets laid off.
