...is this the same company that sent Sunita and Butch into space abroad their Starliner, which developed issues and they are 'stranded there'...?

[@lone_warrior665]

Yes

[@SergioChavez-pi4bn]

The penalty should have been at least one and a half billion. This is the reason why they will not do what they are supposed to do, the top management must be supper happy for such a low penalty.

Fine amount: $243 million Boeing's net worth: $112.78 billion (with a 'b') *Net cost to Boeing through the "fine": 0.2% of their net worth* Now, imagine the amount of "fines' _we'd_ have to pay for an honest mistake while filing our taxes, and then calculate that cost over your own net worth. *_Yep, this is 'justice' according to the system._* _P.S.: if I "vanish", you know what happened (pointing at Boeing ofc, ahem...)_

Fire the MacDonald Douglas management running the show and bring back the original Boeing management. Am sure that should fix the problem.

[@rakesharamaiah2737]

Not possible, previous management sold company at high price, Now old management not going to pay that much money, Also new management made huge investment, so they will cut a cost to save money, Every new purchase company will fire employees, reduce quality team, reduce benefits, Example Twitter, Flipkart after Walmart purchase, ... Actual value vs marketing value, if a company purchase on marketing value... it's doomed

[@asun468]

The ceo took 45% hike for several million $ by cutting corners that costed so many lives. Must face life imprisonment

[@francisty139]

So. Should people follow international law? Should other nations follow international law? When ordinary people commit murder, you either get imprisoned or the death penalty. But not the rich and like the WEF if they commit crimes.

[@africanvoyagesafaris3834]

That 737 Max should not be sold or operated again in this world 😢

[@Niagarafalls2000]

No problem, Boeing can pay 243 million dollars fines to the victims. This is just 7.59 Salaries of their CEO!
