A reasonable response with worries we also share. Thanks for that.

I'm from Europe and don't understand why this should not just be resolved with taxes on the companies.

The record profits of the companies are in my vision because the company does not have to do anything for the healthcare and pensions. So if the company does not have to care for it, but society requires it, this is where the government needs to act. Tax the companies and arrange healthcare and retirement stipends. This solves one issue by solving the other, allowing the company to keep doing what it's doing without having to think about healthcare.. that has been resolved.

Individuals then have retirement benefits and can use private retirement insurance to supplement this.

Defense industry will make this happen if it's viable. War industry drives much of this. So we will see

A few hundred losing their jobs is kinda misrepresenting the situation isn't it. If you keep seeing each company by itself in terms of firings but then group the market as a whole in terms of people with money in the market.

It's either a few thousand with money in the company vs the people fired from that company... Or the market vs all people fired in the market during these waves.

Plus.. when you are one of the fired people the impact can be deeply impactful, in the US even as far as having no health insurance. While less profit does not have such an impact.

That was the risk of remaining on the platform the moment musk took over. And if not then, when he started stripping it down and making it less reliable. And if not then, maybe when he started pursuing shadow banning again.

No government or news business has any business anymore being on Twitter. They should use the fedpub protocol and push out their messages there.

This will allow their readers/citizens to use a broad scala of apps to read them, allows more 3rd party apps to integrate them.

Governments and newspapers must hold the reigns over their own infra or risk this happening.

It will be interesting to know if the cables for these things can handle the load. On an individual level probable, but on larger scale?

Absolutely. Hence my original call for a criminal investigation to see if they indeed accepted the risks knowingly as then they should be held accountable.

Like I think all upper management of big oil that knew what they where doing to the planet should be tried in the Hague for Crimes against humanity. I don't care if they are old and long retired, concentration camp guards are also still tried after all these years.

Maybe they can rent some production space in seattle :P

This is indeed what I meant. I don't think that someone was actively trying to make the plane unsafe, but in the eternal quest for more profit engineers, best practices and safety reports where ignored to make the plane as cheap as possible, resulting in the current ~~flying~~ grounded deathtrap.

But it was so cheap... Would they think of the shareholders!

They really screwed the pooch with the 737 max9.. it's like the gift that keeps on giving.

I think internal documents and communication should be seized and a federal criminal investigation is in order.. someone must have actively fucked with this.

Embrear and Airbus are uncorking the champagne now probably.

My point exactly. Maybe this data should be required to be disclosed.

Mine too. I more mean that what is put on the sticker for sales. That should be an accurate average range for normal use.

Yes we can haggle over "normal use" but the bottom line is that the ranges advertised should be better representative of reality.
