Boeing says it can’t make money with fixed-price contracts::“Rest assured we haven’t signed any fixed-price development contracts, nor intend to.”
Fuck you Boeing. You fuckers have stacked cash hand over fist for fucking decades milking the fucking government and the American people like goddamn cattle. The endless growth has to end. The endless greed has got to end.
Flying Blind is a spectacular book, as much about the financial engineering that doomed GM and Boeing and many others took as their compass;, the safety and quality just the inevitable cost of cutting corners.
