Problem with blaming anyone other than the Boeing leadership is that it was the Boeing leadership who set Boeing's hiring policy and then hired the so called lazy and incompetent Boeing employees. So ultimately...ALL of Boeing's failings are the full responsibility of the Boeing leadership. And it was Boeing leadership who set the policy to put stock price above ALL else. And given that any Boeing employee with half a brain knows that Boeing is doomed regardless of how well they do job. Boeing is now the sinking Titanic with their PR band still playing sweet music to Wallstreet ears to try to keep stock price high for executive severance packages.

@1mtx+1rA6Bnpl 100% correct. Boeing employees are as much to blame as the managers. It took many years, many people, a lot of hands, a lot of wilful blindness and laziness, and a lot of complacency to get to this point. I will never, ever hire an ex Boeing employee.

Boeing hires people based on skin color and gender, not based on competency or experience. You see the results.

Wanted to push all their older employees out the door with the voluntary layoff. And replace them with people with zero experience at the bottom of the pay school. You see the result.

The bean counters. They Think you only need a lead with experience and have an entire team of level 1 working for him. And they’ll still be as productive.

All boeing was focused on it all the money they’re going to save in salary doing this. They never focused on having competent experienced people in you workforce being an asset.

Having only one US transport airplane company has resulted in a corrupt monopoly. The US government should provide incentives to create a couple new US transport airplane companies. This would be a better approach then bailing out a corrupt company that no longer has the expertise and ability to successfully compete with foreign transport airport companies such as Airbus, Embraer and soon COMAC.

It's still the safest way to travel. But when it isn't, it is a horrific end of life. Just ask the people who were in the Boeing airplane when the door plug exploded out. You can't ask the people who were in the lost 737MAXs.

So called companies that are too big to fail should be broken up into smaller companies that can fail. Tax payer money shouldn't be used to bail out these degenerates either. In fact, the entire degenerate Boeing leadership should be heavily personally fined to reimburse all the other companies who have been financially harmed by Boeing's well-orchestrated and multi-decade personal profit over innovation, quality and public safety policy. And while at it, all Boeing employees should pay higher taxes too because they are not clean either...at least until things measurably improve or Boeing is permanently shuttered to protect public welfare and enable more ethical companies to replace it.
