No, this will mean we'll continue to have thousands of fingers lost per year, not introduce additional incidents.
They are not removing a workplace safety requirement, they are preventing a new one from being implemented.
That’s the subheading. The body of the article says;
Gotta make sure real estate stays expensive by making sure construction is as unsafe as possible and minimizing long term prospects for construction workers.
That’s the same thing.
Thousands more fingers lost than there would be if this safety requirement were not implemented.
If a thing is not stopped then it continues to happen. Those future incidents are all in addition to the ones that happened in the past.
No it isn't. Adding
Makes it correct. This didn't exist in the original article.
It doesn’t need to be said. Things that happen in the future are in addition to the things that happened in the past. “I ate scores of breakfasts this year. I will eat dozens more each month.” is not false. No need to add “… than I would if I stopped eating entirely.”
Lol. I can also say...
And
Pretty different meaning.
