Spanking new Boeing planes have nosedived out of the sky, their fuselages have blown out mid flight, yesterday you had a door fly off mid flight in Alaska and Boeing has admitted to defrauding the FAA on their safety —
AND YET
the only person at Boeing who has been prosecuted is literally a technician.
Remember that when your boss ask you to do some questionable shady shit 'for the team' #CapitalismIsKillingYOU #StrikeReady2024

1. under the terms of the agreement, Boeing admitted to defrauding the FAA by concealing safety problems with the 737 Max, but pinned much of the blame on two technical pilots who they say misled regulators while working on the certification of the aircraft. Only one of those pilots was prosecuted and a jury acquitted him at trial last yeali Boeing also agreed to pay $2.5 billion, including $1.7 billion in compensation to airlines that had purchased 737 Max planes but could not use them while the plane was grounded for 20 months after the second plane crashed. The company also agreed to pay $500 million in compensation to the families of those killed in the two Max plane crashes, and to pay a $243 million fine.
