Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.
Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

Then they'll target OSHA saying they're trying to keep honest workers from doing their job, a liberal construct designed for lazy people.
I've worked construction for 8 years and employers don't honestly care about following OSHA standards, they only care about getting caught. I've made reports before and nothing happens because they lie about conditions or dress it up. And I was in a union as well.
I've worked for a construction company for over 25 years. The safety culture has come a long way, but it's not driven by wanting to keep people safe, it's driven by insurance rates.
