I am sorry you are upset/hurt but I am not defending any person or company. Simply pointing out that the article quotes 2.2/100 workers but that is lower than the US avg of 2.7/100 workers.

I don't think its very constructive to compare two different companies or from a geographical region. Similarly, I don't think its good journalism to point out specific cases without diving deeper into the data. I want to compare it to other industries, the US as a whole, how is it being measured etc. For all we know the other companies in the "missile/space" category include a large engineering staff. I really don't know and whats what I want to dive in. Thats why we have OSHA in the US. If OSHA is not doing its job lets dive into whats happening there first. Why is OSHA not putting appropriate pressure on SpaceX if they are violating guidelines? Workers in SpaceX can also easily report anon to OSHA, or at least that used to be the case a few years ago. We don't know but it would be interesting investigative journalism.
