The right thing, actually, for corporations is lining the pockets of their shareholders. Safety goes intrinsically against the right thing for a coal company/corporation to do

True, but it's kind of a universal truth. I'm supposed to do the right thing and pay for public transport, but I don't because at worst you'll get fined 3x $200 (if lady luck isn't on your side) in a year if you travel to/from work every day versus $10 to/from everyday for ~300 days a year.

From 2004 - 2024, I have paid exactly $5,745 in public transport by way of fines. As long as you pay them within 180 days there's literally no consequence (if you don't pay in time they'll suspend your driver's license) and being state debt it doesn't end up on a credit report here.

Better still if you have a mental health condition you can get what's called a WDO where you're forced to see a psych and they reduce your state debt by $1k for each appointment until it's paid. Crazy.
