Yeah this is exactly the problem. The US government is too dependent on Boeing for military solutions. So they can never choke hard enough.

That's not really fair on the Latin American countries. Some just have a lower standard of living so they can be cheaper without cutting corners that would have to be cut in the US. And the FAA can simply stop recognising their maintenance qualifications if they really do cut corners.
I live in a low wage country myself though in Europe and there's also this undeserved reputation.
