Literally the evil party. How did we end up here

GOP hates people. Nothing new except in finding ways to hurt everyone more.
They don't care if people die
They don't see the people who will be affected by this as human
They're truly disgusting
Of course the assholes who never have to work without air-conditioning are fine fucking everyone else
Hell yeah! Fuck the outdoor working chuds! Let's watch these fuckers fucking die!
Can I get some of that heat that only targets chuds?
I don't understand.
not just outdoors. I worked in manufacturing at a place where production was immediately next to annealing furnaces on one side, and shipping on the other, with big truck bay doors constantly open to the outside, no climate control except for box fans and semi-portable AC units, which were only appreciably effective in a small area a few feet directly in front of them. we were also required to wear cut-resistant gloves and sleeves up to the elbow, non-breathable full-length hi-vis uniforms, goggles, and hard hats at all times. there were a small handful of minor heat-related medical incidents every summer. I was honestly surprised when I found out there are no laws that address ambient temperature thresholds for work; OSHA only requires access to clean drinking water
Those requirements are there to protect the company, not us.
I’m from the U.K. FWIW but I’ve complained about heat in the summer and been told “there’s no max heat law” and the cold in the winter…and guess what??
And delivery drivers.
So I was kind of hoping there would be more negative reaction to this one. I had a whole bit planned. Wtf guys?
Every single one of these shit stains is way too old to be making decisions about our working conditions.
Take away the air conditioning in their offices. See how fast they change their minds.
Seriously, GOP is just more evil than any evil fantasy created. Could it be that they really are Satan and his underlings come to earth 🤔
...it's bad enough these people are ugly on the inside, but another side effect of them being terrible is my feed is constantly just pictures of creepy saggy old white dudes.
It’s the hierarchy. If you didn’t want to die of heat stroke, you should've been an Elon Musk.
Just keep blaming the people they treat like expendable cogs.
Have you even tried being in the 1%?
América, amazing country. I won't let you tell me otherwise. No other country in the world let's you have this level of freedom!
That's the point. Our global climate catastrophe can't get in the way of profit margins.
Well, now is the time it would be most expensive!
If I were getting colder maybe they'd think about it.

Apparently this is repealing regulations that would be redundant anyway since states already have regulations in place that are specific to their local climate/industries.

Except much like minimum wage, some states don't have anything in place.
It's almost as if Republicans are massive scumbags that will do literally anything to protect corporations profits, even increasing a body count apparently.
Pro-life, unless it affects profits of course.
