That seems to be the plan, anyway. In the spirit of that heartless joke Ronald Reagan used to tell, about how he hated the frightening thought of a person coming from the government to help. In the old video clips, he took such pleasure trotting out those ugly words.
After my brother died in a workplace accident, a person from OSHA, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, asked to speak with my parents about what had happened. In the course of their meeting at the house, the OSHA man said, "Each of our regulations was written in someone's blood."
Building over decades a web of protections for workers was the job of OSHA. The glib Reagan joke, the selfish and deceptive destruction of the worthiest work of this kind of government agency — things like this come too easily to some of our fellow Americans.
Tearing things down takes little time at all. Building something worthy often takes a lifetime, and sometimes saves many a life.
I remember how the news came that day. My niece jotted me a note today reminding me that she barely knew her father.
