    And of course I know none of that will happen (for now), but the idea of “death penalty”

    Careful what you wish for, because the corporate death penalty can be used to help real people avoid responsibility for a company’s crimes. Breaking up Boeing and auctioning it’s divisions to companies that have the exact same profit motives wouldn’t fix anything.

    You also mentioned nationalizing boeing, which I think makes a lot more sense. Keep it together, clean house, get back to engineering, add ombudsmen or some other new accountability measures for the public, integrate with NASA(?), etc.

    It’s so depressing that even these moderate bureaucratic changes are pure fantasy
