The only difference between China and America is that we have a Constitution, and a history of court cases that are supposed to foster anti monopoly laws, though America failed when Reagan started deregulation and union busting. China uses their version of capitalism to reward party loyalists. I will laugh in your face if you try to dare claim China isn't a Capitalist country. They are authoritarian capitalists.
If anything, our American CEOs look at China's exploitation of labor and masturbate over the prospect of treating our workers like theirs.
So if you want to use the word "safety" in this bad argument, we have a GOP that guts funding to regulations that allow coal ash and chemicals to be dumped in our water supply, and allow Wells Fargo to screw over customers, with nothing more than a fine.
I am still laughing in your face for the uncounted number of times when your strident editorializing yet again rode so rough shod over factual accuracy as to, yet again. break up Kim Jung-Un’s given name and use it as parts of it were his family name.
More apropos, The American coal industry experiences less than 20 work related fatalities each year. The Chinese coal industry experiences 38,000 work related fatalities each year.
Bullcrap!

READ each of the 25, LISTED, non fatal is for each of the occupations listed, not a total of the top 25 listed.
Go read again, non fatal injuries cost workers wages and cost tax payers money, so it isn't just about deaths, so stop lying about it.
Non fatal injuries just for heating/air the article says "6,840"
Construction/painting 3,530
Machinists, 4,990
Electricians 7,790
Non fatal does not mean never debilitating, nor does it mean it doesn't cost the company, worker, or tax payers money. And those are just three of the 25 listed.
And you are talking about trade industry, not all industry. Robbery and assault are part of work place safety in retail and convenience stores. ALL JOBS count not just trade and factory.

There is a psychological cost to physical injury and assault, and even in cases where a worker hands over the goods without resisting, that has a psychological effect.
We are safer is not an argument. It does not change if we suddenly gave giant corporations everything they wanted with no strings, we would look like China. And again, we have had led and coal ash and chemicals dumped in our water supply. And that is just pollution. Financially the GOP policies lead to the financial crash under Bush, and is why Wells Fargo only got a fine.
I would hardly call 17,000 robberies(property theft) ,and 8,107 robberis of pizza joints, cab drivers, 7-11s working to a "safe" environment.
If the GOP had it's way they'd get rid of OSHA, and bring back black lung coal mines.
