For once, make the perpetrators hurt. Criminal charges against individual members of company leadership, a multi-billion dollar fine, and some sort of direct supervision of manufacturing operations by the FAA seem like reasonable government responses. The company need not be damaged; it needs a cleansing from the top to change its corporate culture.
US is essentially a corrupt state where the oligarchy plays by a different set of rules than others.
Boeing is the poster child for corporate greed and the effects it can lead to.
Did someone really expect US to seriously damage Boeing, one of the few manufacturing companies that still produce in the country?
> The deal it has been offered âappears to be a sweetheart dealâ, said Sanjiv Singh, counsel for 16 families of crash victims, citing a request for the Department of Justice to independently appoint a corporate monitor of Boeing, rather that permit the company to nominate its own candidates. âI am stunned that the department deflected our demand and fell back on âoh itâs policyâ,â he said.
Lol what. With these rampant revolving doors I wouldnât even trust an âindependently appointedâ monitor. But allowing them to nominate their own is another level of insanity.
