Click here for an article at Substack by Robert Reich entitled "What to do about corporations that maim and kill their workers: A personal story."
Reich tells the story of how he tried to marshal public opinion to force a Goodrich plant in Oklahoma City that was defying OSHA orders to implement safety measures; Goodrich responded by announcing it would shut down the plant, putting 1,100 workers out of a job. Reich and the OSHA head had to back down; "the bullies won."
That was in 1994, when Reich was Secretary of Labor; the same stuff is going on today.
