This happened during the Hurricane Helene flooding about 15 mins from me in Tennessee: https://www.foxweather.com/weather-news/impact-plastics-erwin-tennessee-deaths-investigation There's several suits against the company but we'll see if they go anywhere. Tennessee is a fucking NIGHTMARE as a working person, and I suspect you are right that it's the model they want to put in place everywhere in the country.

I’ve put in thousands of hours on these projects; call centers, warehouses, tilt-up office buildings. Good solid(IBEW 46) union wages, maybe with all that $$$$$ we amassed we could form some sort of collective bargaining agreement that funds social housing?
