Biden wants a federal law to forbid private companies from replacing union workers

Are you really using the exceptionally low statistical likelihood of being injured in a tornado to worker abuse? The odds of dying in a tornado, at least according some statisticians, is 1 in 5,693,092, they go on to list 10 things that are more likely to kill you than a tornado and guess what was on the list, COWS, that's right, you are more likely to die from a cow than a tornado, so shut the fuck up about worker abuse, accept that living and working involves risk and go back inside whatever basement you crawled out of.

The odds of dying at work due to tornado are skewed a bit when the management is like "There's a tornado coming. Keep making those candles, bitches" Then the employees try to leave, but get told they'll be fired if they do. Which in that case, is probably way more likely than death by cow. Unless you've just got some real ornery cows.

And then you have folks dying in a Kentucky candle factory because their managers threatened them with being fired if they didn't stay.

Source?

Literally every news agency.

Oh, then link one? I hadn't heard that the candle shop owner was threatening to fire employees to stay at their job during a tornado.

Ok, here ya go, an uber liberal left wing source and ZERO mention of anyone being fired if they left.

As apposed to firing people for not getting a vaccine...

I found one:

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...mploy-rcna8581

Sounds like the employees were saying they were threatened, but the owners/managers said no one was threatened.

I also read a "news" article about the death at an Amazon warehouse where the guy who died sent a text to his wife saying that Amazon wouldn't let him leave because a tornado was in the area... the article literally was worded that Amazon was forcing him to be there.. when in reality it sounds like Amazon was looking out for their employee... not wanting him to leave when there was a tornado in the area.

I'll take "Things that never happened" for 1000, Alex.

That's pretty much SOP for any employer during a Tornado.

Telling everyone to go home when it's the land of OZ outside is something an alt-left Employer would do.

Unions protect people, employers usually exploit.

Not really, mostly they extort them for money and cover up nefarious and incompetent behavior. I was a member of CWA for 5 years working for a baby Bell so I got to see it first hand.
