Grip it and rip it posted:That's not how the constitution works. That law is loving stupid though. You're right on the latter definitely and you should be right on the former but I have very little faith in "how the constitution works" anymore.

After reading some of the poo poo people go through with their family, I would say some families absolutely need to be unionized.

REI is organized as a co-op so it's slightly less lovely than a public corporation. But it's also an object lesson in how being a nonprofit or co-op doesn't automagically make you good.

Importantly it's a consumer cooperative, which is good, but it's not a worker cooperative, so you still get labor/management relations more or less like you'd find in a normal business.

Here is an American perspective to a major Finnish retail cooperative. Interesting comparisons to REI with the management reward structure and how the management is chosen and so on. https://www.peoplespolicyproject.org/2023/10/11/inside-the-walmart-of-finland

NASA needs something that can lift a lot of cargo to the Moon and is reusable, and Starship's in-flight refuelling capability will allow them to do that. SLS can get people to the moon but it doesn't carry any sort of landing capabilities onboard, and a LM style thing that is towed out to the moon by the SLS isn't really capable for building any sort of permanent moon base.
