The worst part of this whole thing to me is Musk's blatant disregard for human life to protect the value of his company. 3 people have died It's all relative.

It's all relative. Boeing CEO Dennis Muilenburg hears that and says: "hold my beer".
Boeing timeline:
Oct 29, 2018 Lion Air crash, 189 dead
Nov 10, 2018 pilots already talking about Boeing
emergency airworthiness directive related to MCAS[1]
Mar 10, 2019 Ethiopian Airlines crash kills 157
Mar 11, 2019 Boeing CEO "confident in 737 MAX safety"[2]
Then the Boeing CEO drops his mic and says "Your move, Elan!"
Sorry to be so cynical, but the Boeing stuff really bothers me. Boeing management behavior was worse than Tesla's.
