The Bush Administration almost totally destroyed OSHA in terms of its
ability to go after employers in order to protect workers.

How did they do that?
I know OSHA scares the hell out of the people around here. When a "go
team" shows up in an area they inspect every job site they see and the
fines start at $1000 going up to $10,000 per violation and they always
find violations, no matter how trivial they may be.
If a guy on the job has an "expired" hard hat ... $1000. Stuff like
that. (yes hard hats have a date on them).

Harry is trying real hard to justify Unions, and deflect from the fact
that Corps need more protection from Unions than Workers need from
Corps. This is a fact he really can't dispute so he keeps throwing up
whatever talking point he thinks will stick!

gee. is that why the germans have such a competiive economy even
though thier workforce is heavily unionize? and the US has no
unions...

and what protection do companies need from unions? unions have NO
power at all. none.

corporations run the govt.

let's see...who destroyed wall street...corporations like lehman bros
or unions??

You can't really compare the US to Germany. Their whole culture is
different. They are far more conservative than the US. To start with
their debt ratio is far lower, personal and government.

really? i guess that's why they have so many unions

because they're conservative


HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
