    AND 2 other people have been killed at that same damn plant since 2020! How is OSHA not up their ass before this even happened.

      How is OSHA not up their ass before this even happened.

      They’re wildly underfunded and understaffed.

        And when they DO actually try to enforce, there’s generally pressure from the top to “go light” and give the company a chance to amend their procedure (at least until after the next inspection) rather than charging them with manslaughter or whatever.
