I took on an additional 40 hr job while still doing mine with no extra pay increase
Recently the other office girl quit and I was assigned her complete job title along with mine. No extra payment compensation was given so I now do 80 hours of work in a 40 hour workweek. I also am not aloud to have any lunch or breaks at all. Is this all legal? The owner has also cussed me out numerous times spitting and recently called me a fu**ing Pus*y I have put up with his harrasment for too long and, I would like to know if I have a case?

If you are working 80 hours per week and getting paid for only 40 hours, then it's illegal (unless you fall into an except class of employees, and it doesn't sound like you do).
It's also illegal for your employer to harass you as it sounds like the harassment is because you are female.
You should talk with a lawyer to determine the validity of a claim based on more detail from you.
