:: 150 people will be killed on the job or die from job-related illnesses and diseases today ::

Maybe they should all be working South-side Chicago. Only 14 injured and 2 dead over the weekend.

The same idiot that did this count, counts homeless and uninsured the rest of the year.

40 years in mining and I’ll agree with you. There are equipment failure, unexpected rock fall, etc. where improvements can be made but saving time by cutting corners, carelessness, hangovers, bad lifting practices, dope, and laziness account for the bulk of industrial accidents.

Okay ... 150 people will die today because of ...

If true, why doesn’t Big Labor provide us the names of these people. Or, how about providing the names of the ones who died six months ago?

It is long past time that people and organizations who spout numbers back them up with actual names.

Am I skeptical - you becha!

I am tired of the constant crises of one form or another; none of which seem to be backed up by hard facts of any kind. This constant level of crises in one form or another has replaced reasoned debates as the Federal Government lurches from one crises to another on alamost a daily basis.
