When's the last time that actually happened, even over multiple losses of life?

From big pharma to Boeing to auto industry to big oil literally poisoning the planet, we can't think of an example since Southwestern Bell's 1983 Divestiture Decree.

It needs to start happening until companies stop stealing from their employees and screwing over their customers. We are at a point now where these types of things are common occurrences and it's beyond ridiculous.

Boeing is a great company. Engineers, airplane part specialists, and managers have absolutely zero intention to do harm. These aren't Wall Street pump and dump folks. Things happen.

Ah, Mr. Forkner - welcome to Reddit.

This is called "substantiation of a point" - you won't recognize it, not having done this yourself, yet others might. This is not the only instance of Boeing's illegal & lethal acts, it is simply what's most recently available.

Long & short - you want what you're saying to be true; it is not.

For those who are suspicious of links, NPR:
[The aerospace company Boeing admitted to criminal misconduct for misleading regulators after two of its 737 MAX airplanes crashed. Despite that, the Justice Department says that the families of those killed are not victims of a crime.]
