> some UULA office workers sitting behind desks You believe OSHA's categorization of aerospace "manufacturing" facilities is wrong? Why?

• asadotzler 1y ago
  Yes. When ULA is building a rocket, they're in a many years old, long completed clean room assembly line with a few machinist stations. When they're launching, they have a tiny pad staff and medium office staff. Comparing those to the construction site that is Starbase, is apples to oranges.

    As of mid-May the population was around 500, including around 120 kids. It voted itself a city for bureaucratic reasons, but a teeming metropolis it is not.

      Plus the stats-in-question are already scaled by hours worked. (Which also renders the number of children moot, unless something illegal is going on.)

      There are far more than 500 people working in Starbase. Most of them do not live there so it's kind of pointless to mention that.

        Not when the argument is that they're building homes for residents?
