Rising Hegemon
Rescue workers in Bangladesh on Friday rushed to find survivors of Wednesday's horrific garment-factory collapse—but the death toll nevertheless climbed above 300, more than three times as high as initial reports...
The collapse is the worst workplace accident in Bangladesh history, surpassing the fire that killed 112 five months ago, and workers have taken to the streets around the capital of Dhakar in protest of poor safety standards and workplace conditions , in some cases forcing factories to shut down. In response, police fired rubber bullets and tear gas.
The rubber bullets and tear gas for protesting mass deaths from negligence is a nice touch the Koch Brothers could appreciate.

Hell, the Koch brothers probably sold Bangladesh the rubber bullets and tear gas....
i read over 1000 were pulled out alive. how many people were crammed in there????
10c an hour paychecks, negligible health and safety regulations, cops eager to shoot labor demonstrators, it's a Republican paradise.
it's as though the kocks have multipilied in the last decades. with free reign to make workers lives as worthless as scrap.
like good little spiders, they sent forth their mental memes and clones... with a web of ick to gather wealth at the expense of others worldwide.
but then, it's been this way for a long long time...
