Agreed. However, the worst part is the FAA. Specifically, what baffles me is the massive hand-wave they did on this considering it is one of their mandates to check flight-worthiness of Airplanes/Airlines.
I hope all the other agencies worldwide will double check all the prior certifications issued by the FAA, because all their credibility is gone. Especially considering the US was the one the last countries to ground the 737 MAX.
I wonder what happened there. Bribes? Favors? Lobbying and ties? All of the above?

- linuxftw 7y agoDo you think regulatory capture actually exists? If so, why is the pharmaceutical industry immune?
- RockyMcNuts 7y agowhy do you think pharma is immune, after fiascos like Vioxx, Accutane, opioids, the fact that much regulatory machinery is in place to create drug monopolies?
