Boeing bribed Nikki Haley with a lucrative board seat in exchange for even more lucrative tax breaks to move production to South Carolina. The result was a far shittier product and planes that started falling.

The safety record of Boeing vs airbus over the last 15 years isn’t really comparable.

Hopefully Trump nationalizes Boeing like he did intel to fix the problem.


Could be an alter. Not sure. Thing is, you probably actually have an actual desire for your guy to be a dictator, same as the other folks. Well, then let's nationalize Spotify and channel the lion's share of the money to the artists instead of the Spotify crats.

Typical lying tongue of a socialist sympathizer. The only Boeing aircraft built in South Carolina is the 787. And the only one that has crashed was the Air India flight with the suicidal captain that shut off the fuel switches after takeoff.

Moving manufacturing to SC has zero to do with it. Boeing is run by bean counters instead of aerospace engineers. That’s the problem with Boeing.

This will be the first time in US history that the government has taken action against the socialist aircraft manufacturer Airbus Industrie

There’s no difference between socialism and this crony capitalist move.

Seems like we at least all agree Nikki Haley taking a paid board seat on Boeing is a bribe. Or as a defense lawyer would call it, a permissible gratuity.

Public corruption has become like a catch in the nfl. Common sense is out the window and we all just sit back wondering why we can’t call a spade a spade.

Ron Rogers YouTube channel. He's a retired US airline captain and test pilot. He flew the A320 at United and was a Line Check Airman on it. He also flew other Airbus types in flight evaluations. So I would say he is unbiased. He has made several videos on the hazards and design flaws of Airbus aircraft. He also discussed that in the 1980s, Airbus touted the new A320 as "uncrashable". Of course that blew up in their face. But what other vessel was touted in a similar manner?


airbus is a bucket of bolts compared to a Boeing, but I'm always be wary of these chest thumping expert types because I know quite a few of them and what they're really like
