    If you think it’s just shareholders, you should see how many employees work on Boeing shit.

    I don’t really get the desire to pretend the entire economy is just owner class.

      Because diligent, intelligent, and talented people were systematically told to shut the fuck up about safety and just crank up the numbers for 25-30 years because it stopped being run by engineers around that time. Boeing literally had their middle managers berating their specialist for uncovering issues in manufacturing processes and trying to quality-hold certain parts and operations. What part of that is not on leadership and management?

        You can check my recent post history - I’m no friend of management. Tens of thousands of paychecks still rely on Boeing selling airplanes.

          No, I get it. But you’re categorically ignoring the concept of wage slavery, and the fact that this is a textbook example of one of the negative outcomes of wage slavery.

              Lmao I’m sorry, I misinterpreted your earlier comments 😂

              On a more serious note: as someone who’s also worked for big aerospace in the past, it must be really frustrating to watch the engineering excellence that Boeing used to represent kinda fall apart over the years :(

      If the benifits of the economy greatly impact the owner class but the faults of it do not impact the owner class as much, then its the owners economy. Everyone else is just getting pissed on, its actually tinkle down economics.
