Goddamn. If there’s ever a class action suit where the witnesses get leaked, we might see the first case of corporate serial killing…

Can we then finally have corporal punishment for corporations plz? Corporal corporate punishment.

They want to be considered people to influence the government, they should be tried as people and everyone running it receives the same sentence.

We have so many monopolistic companies in the US that should have been nationalized years ago. It’s one reason we can’t have nice things.

Coca cola supposedly hired the AUC.

Satire implies some humor. This is terrifying. I 100% believe this giant corporation murdered these people and other ones will try to do the same. It’s like when Russia kills someone and barely tries to provide plausible deniability. Because there’s no consequences and they’ll get away with it anyway. And because they want to send a threatening message. We are literally living in a dystopia…

Boeing is a strategic military asset of the US government, who needs to hire private corporate hitmen when we have plenty of tax dollar funded ones

It’s important to remember that Boeing isn’t JUST a plane company, but a government contractor that does a massive amount of rocket work for the armed forces.

There are more people than stock holders that have a vested interest in Boeing.

Including just about every single person who promised and/or would end up being responsible for conducting an investigation on them. Boeing is basically above the law as long as they pay the fines levyed by the courts that are overwhelmingly on their side.

Isn’t it legal now? Did the US government nullify any Boeing contracts because of the first murder? Any of the Boeing heads and their government stooges in prison?

I agree, and strongly believe that the most helpful way forward in this respect would be to implement ranked choice voting, which is just about as out-of-reach to most Americans as a viable third-party candidate is today.

Maybe the next try at democracy will be the one that sticks.

Despite the downvotes, you’re probably right. Not because they won’t try, but because they’re not smart enough to pull it off.

They will do monumental damage in the process of trying, though.
