Let’s play Jeopardy: In 2019, this company (reluctantly) grounded its fleet of 737 planes that were knowingly flawed, headfaked to the FAA as being safe, resulting in two crashes killing hundreds. The CEO leaves with a $45 million parachute, and no executives are held accountable for manslaughter, or any other crime. Now in 2020, this company seeks without shame a taxpayer-funded bailout.
Answer? What is Boeing.
Wall Street greed right here in our backyard. What is wrong about this equation, where reckless disregard for profiteering is rewarded with corporate welfare. Sorry for all the hardworking employees who did not have a hand in this nightmare, and who subsequently were forced to work in these incubators until enough of them were infected. Really? We condone and therefore encourage this, without a shred of consequence or accountability. Sickening.
