It's not in incompetency, these mega shareholders know exactly what they're doing, it's all about maximizing shareholder profits, everything else be damned.

Next time I buy a plane it will definitely be an Airbus and not a Boeing.

Thank you, Ronald Reagan, Milton Friedman and the entire University of Chicago School of Economics. Couldn’t have happened without you.

Shareholders want money at any cost. It's not incompetence, it's criminal greed. Let's hope Airbus and Embraer don't follow Boeing's steps.

Key shareholders were on the scam...

How much did Boeing spend on share buy backs?

The board approved them....

Same thing with Intel.

Now both will be bailed out by taxpayers and criminals will keep the stolen money

Just a majority of the voting Americans.

Implying there wasn't massive fraud

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (2 children)

There wasn't. The election was not rigged.

Nope. We already went through this in 2020. There wasn't massive fraud then, and there wasn't massive fraud in 2024.

What if being too stupid to vote but then doing it anyway was a kind of fraud? Yes, I'm a centrist who just wants us to all be friends, how did you guess?

You could make the argument that defunding education leads to a population that's more susceptible to fraud.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

OK, fine, just enough fraud.

It was, by Musk, he used the addresses he got from that sweepstake. A number of computer scientists sent proof to the Democrats and were ignored.

Dammit, I had all the sources somewhere.
