I am sure Trump will have an interesting tweet about the program...

His team is already looking for variants on helping to Boeing corporation to overcome the crisis, I believe.

 :palm: Shoked by details revealed. That's deadly side effect of capitalism.

SiliconWizard:
Well I dunno. "Killer planes" seems like an appropriate pun here. Sure at Boeing they are not going to like the humor.

It can be, but it doesn't have to be.  One would think that if a CEO had created or overseen a project where the engineers (or marketing people...) pt money over lives... more than once, that CEO/management/engineers would be arrested and tried for hundreds of counts of murder.  The same goes for felony charges with investment and other fraud.  But, time and time again these laws are not enforced.  The CEO of Boeing still has his job and is still making millions.  All that does is encourage the behavior.  The real root cause is a complete lack of accountability, and these events will happen until that changes.  Judging by the long history of similar events, I'm not going to hold my breath.
