    The show was about how subcontractors are not using proper safety precautions when building new towers because of the rush to build new towers. Because of this, workers are falling to their death.

    Safety equipment is expensive and cuts into the bottom line.

    And, these days, there's no shortage of labor so workers are expendable.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
