The right thing to do would be to seize Boeing, take it away from its shareholders, hold and interrogate the major shareholders, and regardless of the outcome of interrogations the company should never return to the public. Either dismantle and sell every pathetic asset, or run it as a public company. This is a no-brainer, they should not be allowed to continue with business as usual even if no one is found guilty or no direct link is established.
When a person is convicted of certain crimes, the government assumes control over their life in the form of imprisonment. Why shouldn't the same happen to corporations that commit serious offenses? Any argument against this could be applied tenfold to the incarceration of citizens, but I suspect that defenders of criminal corporations don't have a consistent view in that regard.
Forget identifying the people responsible, forget pleas that they'll do better, forget fines-- if you demonstrate that you are willing to use your freedom to abuse society, society gets to tell you what to do. Sometimes for a few years, sometimes forever.
You are 100% correct, and this same sentence is justified for countless other evil corporations but will similarly never pass. I honestly think biden is our dead cat bounce and regardless if he wins or not, the decline is just ramping up.
Boeing said it was saddened to hear of Mr Barnett's passing.
I'm sure they were distraught.
This is something I thought would be on the Onion.
Deeply saddened by such a tragic loss, and we send our condolences to his family.
Meanwhile, Boeing execs
"self-inflicted" ahh huuh
He just wandered out to his car and died, bro. In the middle of a deposition. Its actually incredibly normal, bro. Why are you asking all these questions, bro? He just died, okay? Its fine.
Yeah, he just fell down an elevator shaft… onto some bullets…
The timing is very convenient.... for Boeing.
