Clarence Thomas takes aim at a new target: Eliminating OSHA

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas has set his sights on eliminating the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.

The Supreme Court on Tuesday announced which cases it would consider next and which it wouldn’t. Among those the court rejected was a case that challenged the authority of OSHA, which sets and enforces standards for health and safety in the workplace.

And Thomas, widely considered to be the most conservative justice on the already mostly conservative court, wasn’t happy.

In a dissent, he explained why he believed the high court should’ve taken the case: OSHA’s power, he argues, is unconstitutional.

OSHA just adds cost to any construction project that isn’t needed.

So does a worksite death or injury.

asteriskeverything ,

Just not nearly as much, and most importantly they are held much less accountable for those things without OSHA or similar oversight…

OSHA is better than dead workers littering the worksite.

Hey, speaking as a construction worker, get fucked. OSHA keeps people like me alive. Just get fucked. I cannot express this passionately enough.

he frequently does this batshit insane stuff, and yet, for some reason, this fuckup has a fan following on Lemmy.

Krauerking ,

There is seriously a few accounts on here where they are just shit stains saying horrible shit and bullying people but they are on 24/7 and people just upvote because they look strong and sometimes say things that feel smart or empowering.

If you ever want to know how Trump got to power just look around.

In case you’re not just trying to harvest downvotes (hey, everyone needs a hobby); That’s a stupid fucking take.

That is so completely insane. Do you know how many workplace injuries and deaths were eliminated because of things OSHA put in place?

You’ll say that until you fall off a ledge without a guard rail

Clarence Thomas is unconstitutional. By his own originalist logic, he is only 3/5 of a human and should not be married to a white woman.

Fuck Clarence Thomas.

I hope he finds a missing guard rail and falls to his death.

I hope he gets on a private jet with 5 other justices and some of his billionaire buddies for a trip to some tropical resort only for the plane to get shot down through a president’s official act suddenly go down, totally unexpectedly.

Of course Clarence, the most openly corrupt, would be the one to dissent against the OSHA case. Clarence can go fuck himself

    You and Clarence Thomas both can leave, now. There’s no room for you here.

    This has always been a Republican dream. If people are not dying on the job are they really working hard enough?

    It’s a good thing NOBODY WHO WOULD POSSIBLY BENEFIT FROM THIS has given Thomas Gifts Bribes or ANYTHING to sway his Judgement!

    WTF does someone have on him that he has been so emboldened the last few years?

    He was inspired by Trump’s popularity showing that Americans are more easily manipulated than he ever dreamed.

    “The agency claims authority to regulate everything from a power lawnmower’s design,” he wrote, “to the level of ‘contact between trainers and whales at SeaWorld.’”

    I fail to see anything wrong with either thing like… is he just mad it is not the people who sell lawn mowers should decide what’s safe?? Please please please don’t tell me Americans are going to dip to this new level of cognitive dissonance

    Not speaking to policy but law, he’s probably hinting that this is a violation of the non delegation doctrine.

    It’s still illegal to resell them too. I see them pop up in reseller groups from time to time.

    The program for rolling back hard fought union victories is going full steam ahead.

    I suppose the American worker could wake up to the reality that the protection against utter abuse for no pay didn’t just appear out of thin air and that only their fellow worker can be relied upon to stick for them.

    ours ,

    Ah, but the police force got much better and stronger since back in those days so good look going back to protesting to get those rights back,

    Plus splitting people over insane conspiracies keeps them weak and easier to control so Americans are less likely to stick together and fight the real enemy: the billionaires.

    jaybone ,

    They will lay off middle class American workers, then bring in H1B visa workers to replace them at half the cost, then blame immigrants for taking their jobs. Then blame border security and terrorism.

    el_bhm ,

    That is the plan. Clarence Thomas is owned by billioners parasites that want a feudalism system in their corporations.

    Are you kidding? The Budweiser and Marlboro crowd will be told it is the fault of some brown people so they will double down on their hate and donations to elect a dictator who will “solve” their problems
