Yeah, yeah, but the executives that took the various decisions that made Boeing what it is now are even more millionaire than when they started at Boeing and will not see the inside of a jail cell, ever.
So we can all rest easy knowing that those we are constantly told are the most important people who deserve to be paid so much because of being risk takers and wealth creators, will be just fine, as if a few "nobody" whistleblowers had to be taken out, well, that's a price the trully important risk taking wealth creators were willing to pay.
I was watching this Korean show, they made a whole huge deal about a corporation stealing 5 billion won from the public. I literally burst out laughing when I googled the conversion and it's 3.5 mil USD, big corporations here steal that amount in a quarter second just by breathing yet in Korea it's apparently an amount worthy of its own entire show. US is such a fucked oligarchy.
Assuming the show reflects corporate values and isn't just propaganda like US police shows are intended to make the Korean public (and anyone watching from outside of Korea) think that that's how that would be treated.
From what I understand, South Korea's economy is dominated by a small number of mega corps (like Samsung) that try to do pretty much everything.
What show is that?
