> I think the idea is that more money and resources should lead to more investments in workplace safety.
Thing is, they have made more investments.
It should come as no surprise that trucking is one of the most dangerous jobs in America. All of the shipping companies with available injury data show up equally dangerous. Sanders hasn't revealed anything shocking. It is well understood that driving is just plain dangerous.
We can clearly see heavy investment in things like self-driving technology has been made at Amazon; something which could improve workplace conditions – maybe even eliminate the workplace entirely, removing all possible danger to the ultimate degree. They have invested unsuccessfully, perhaps, but that is the nature of investment. Investment does not guarantee yield. Many (most?) investments will fail.
I'm guessing Sanders thinks the audience believes in magic?
