$244 million fine is what they’re looking at.
346 people have died on the 737 Max, that means they’re getting fined less than $1m for every life lost.
This is a joke, Boeing made $2.2bn last year, that’s $6 million a day.
Thats a little over 1 month of lost wages for killing 346 people.
What do you think the odds are of us getting people who refuse to take the Covid vaccine to take the bird flu vaccine?
Unvaccinated people become mutation factories and the disease mutates so that the vaccine is no longer effective, that’s why it’s important to have everyone vaccinated to prevent the outbreak from worsening.
If only 1/2 of people get the vaccine, we’re fucked.
I firmly believe when it comes to serious medical issues like this, personal freedom of choice can just go fuck itself.
You don’t want to be vaccinated? Too bad, we’ll tie you down and give it to you anyway.
I understand I’m voting for Kamala Harris with my vote for Biden, but I don’t think she could beat Trump.
There’s a lot of independents still on the fence between Trump and Biden (for some reason) and I think that anyone who’s even entertaining the idea of voting for Donald Trump would never vote for a woman of color.
So, unfortunately because we’re so late in the election year, I think we’ll have to vote for the old white guy to keep the old white felon out of the Whitehouse.
The only silver lining to all of this is that they’ll probably both be dead before the next election and we can firmly remember to take age into account in the next primary if Biden wins.
If Trump wins there won’t ever be another primary or general election and I think a lot of people lose focus on that because Biden is 2½ years older than Trump.
78% of Americans make what you call “destitute wages” and live paycheck to paycheck on W2 income.
They had a primary, did everyone suddenly forget all the Palestine protesters that abstained from voting for Biden in the primary?
I would admit I used to get McDonald’s quite a bit for lunch because it was pretty cheap. But, where I live a Big Mac meal is on average about $16 right now and I can get a burrito bowl from Chipotle with a drink for $13.
I’m not saying Chipotle is high quality food but I don’t think anyone’s going to argue it’s not better quality than McDonald’s, so why on earth would I pay more for McDonald’s?
They overreached on their price gouging and now they’re just trying to backpedal because they’re losing money.
Well it’s Russian infrastructure on Ukrainian land, who cares what it’s for?
I’m pretty sure that’s supposed to be a juice box
The point is, enough of them said No that they didn’t have a choice but to let them do it.
Imagine what they could have done with an actual union to organize and coordinate their efforts.
About 3 years too late.
Didn’t stop them in Viet Nam
After a half decade of delays and several major issues, including it spinning out of control in space on it’s first test flight, and all the issues with literally anything else Boeing touches, I can’t see how they talked them into getting in it in the first place.
I’m pretty sure it hasn’t had a single fully successfully test flight yet so I’m surprised even NASA allowed it.
They won’t stop then they’re out, they’ll just draft people who didn’t sign up for this shit and force them to fight to the death.
Catholicism, people still give a percentage of their paychecks to an autocrat of a foreign city state so he can tell them what God wants. You’d figure after 1,400 years people would figure out they were getting scammed.
That’s not too say protestant churches aren’t guilty of the same things, they just haven’t been at it as long.
The FAA has limited Boeing’s production of 737 Max jets to 38 per month
I feel like when there’s at least one new scandal about their aircraft every week, the production should be limited to a big fat nil
A Truce and not a Treaty?
So Russia will get a break to regroup and in exchange Ukraine is expected to pull out of contested areas so Russia can get a running start on the rest of Ukraine when the truce falls apart?
No joke, years ago a deputy got busted handcuffing a mentally disabled woman and dragging her by her ankles down a set of stairs on his body cam.
They fucking let him resign after the scandal and he went to the very next county over (my county) and got a job as a deputy on our sheriff’s department where he’s been ever since despite dozens of complaints.

I love this for her
