Justice Clarence Thomas argued that OSHA's authority was unconstitutional. He dissented from the court's decision to reject a challenge to the agency.

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas has set his sights on eliminating the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.

The Supreme Court on Tuesday announced which cases it would consider next and which it wouldn’t. Among those the court rejected was a case that challenged the authority of OSHA, which sets and enforces standards for health and safety in the workplace.

And Thomas, widely considered to be the most conservative justice on the already mostly conservative court, wasn’t happy.

In a dissent, he explained why he believed the high court should’ve taken the case: OSHA’s power, he argues, is unconstitutional.

      The solution to Amazon’s recruitment problems: slavery. Just chain the suckers to the warehouse and you don’t have to worry about them running away any more. And if one croaks from the heat, you won’t even have to bother covering the body any more.

          Your body will be repurposed as energy for the factory.

              Now you mention it, maybe it would be more profitable to use the bodies as food. Gotta get someone to make a spreadsheet.
