cuz our workers have benefits and things like rights.

Who is gonna tell this stable genius how US construction actually work?

You saying things like OSHA and fall arrest harnesses and PPE don't affect construction speed in the US at all?

I am saying that original commenter is talking out of his.

Also, referencing OSHA here shows that you don't understand how a construction site functions. Sure there is regulations but lax enforcement, extensive usage of suncotnrwctors and less than legal labour makes all of that enforcement merely a theater.

If you think it's bad here, try other countries. I don't know about Taiwan specifically, but lots of countries have even worse enforcement.

A lot of countries have it better but I don't see my dear cuntry men strive for that...

Fun fact: Taiwan doesnt want its workers dying or disabled either

[โ€“] Pyr_Pressure@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago

My comment had nothing to do with Taiwan, just the quote that sunzu2 said about how US construction actually works.
