>>11746997>Why do people say this stupid shit constantly?Serious answer anon? Legitimate fucking anger at post-McDonnell Douglas dysfunctional Boeing eating TENS OF BILLIONS of our tax dollars for FUCKING NOTHING. It isn't JUST that it's pork, I can actually support pork just fine in some cases. It's that it was WORTHLESS pork, and that it has actively set us back. Air travel is much worse as a result. Space development was set back as a result.
I hold nothing against the actual engineers/workers at Boeing, not their fault. But Boeing as a company has been really shit MUH SHAREHOLDER VALUE RETURNS for a few decades and it is a bit sweet to see the bill finally, finally coming due a bit. Partly because I'd genuinely like to see them be great again, but that won't happen without an enormous fucking kick in the ass. Repeatedly.
