Unpopular Opinion"Allahu Akbar" has killed millions. Cancel anyone who says the "A" phrase. It represents murder and pedophilia which are the pillars of islam.21
AskMakeNoLawWould you support a nationwide age limit, even if parents disagree?56

Unpopular OpinionPoor people are more likely to be obese. Imo Democrats' body positivity movement is just an attempt to get poor people's votes, but it's actually killing them. Democrats are profiting with votes off poor people's pain.80

Any rule would need pay protection. Otherwise workers will hide symptoms or keep going because losing half a shift means missing rent. That's capitalism.

And no retaliation. If the rule depends on them telling their boss they're dizzy, it's already failed. Employees are gonna second guess how they feel to not piss anyone off.

Stfu. Communism and socialism would do the same. Capitalism lets you start a competitor that treats workers fairly.

Can't do a flat cutoff. 95 in the shade isn't 95 in full sun wearing heavy gear. Require water, shade and breaks then set a hard stop when it gets unsafe.

Florida banned cities and counties from making their own workplace heat rules, so apparently the legal limit here is "good luck." A statewide standard would be nice before more workers end up hospitalized over somebody's landscaping schedule.

Whatever law they make needs to cover indoor workplaces too. Warehouses, kitchens can get brutally hot even when the outdoor temperature looks fine.
