The stockholders are you and I, via retirement plans.
- echelon 7y agoOur investment portfolios and retirement plans can be rebalanced. Those that died in the two Max crashes are gone forever. This isn't cheating on emissions. We have to send a strong message.
- ericd 7y agoIf you mean just lose money when you say the stockholders should pay, then yeah, whatever. But if you mean that they should be held responsible, I think that’s absurd. That’s what I meant by my response. Losing 1000 people is a tragedy, and those responsible should be held responsible. But a company like Boeing is a huge machine with many people working diligently on extremely complicated products, the vast majority of whom didn’t touch this faulty system at all. Which is to say you shouldn’t throw the baby out with the bath water.
