What I want to see is antitrust action against them. Split them into 2 entities, commercial and military. If you're too big to fail, then perhaps you're too big to exist.
- cm2187 6y agoHaving those two entities under one roof certainly creates some problems (subsidising the civil through the military). But either of the two entities would still be strategically important on its own and wouldn't allowed to go bust.
- jdhn 6y agoIf they were split into 2, the military entity would still continue to exist due to the fact that its primary customer would be the US military who isn't in danger of running out of money anytime soon. The commercial entity may be in trouble due to market conditions or poorly received planes like the 737 Max, but then they could declare bankruptcy and move on.
- smileysteve 6y ago> poorly received planes like the 737 Max Oh, they were received with open arms; they were just delivered with 2 crashes that led to their grounding.
