It's Time to Nationalize and Then Break Up Boeing
If America wants to make civilian airplanes here, the government must step in, take over Boeing, and then design a competitive industry.
There is a discussion on Hacker News, but feel free to comment here as well.
Throw in criminal prosecutions for the Boeing and FAA higher up officials that at this point essentially must have been both illegally colluding and violating both laws and internal policies, and I am 100% in agreement.
Any one who knows anyone who has worked at Boeing for a while knows that everything in terms of quality control and internal processes have gone to shit, not to mention the whole grand scheme of saving money by outsourcing more and more things to outside contractors basically catastrophically failed from a business perspective as well, and that a whole lot of people have known a whole lot of highly dubious nonsense has been going on for over a decade now, almost always getting swept under the rug.
