@AoDespair In principle I agree with you. W/r/t this plane crash, Boeing seems to have behaved badly but does not operate in a system where capitalism is unfettered or profit is a singular determinant. There are fetters. And other determinants. So what went wrong? — PolitiTweet.org

@TheHyperCritic @AoDespair Yes, exactly, those are different problems, and one can imagine other scenarios. It’s important to figure out where precisely the problem was—like the NTSB does!—and the “capitalism needs guardrails!” rhetoric, while generally true, is not apt here — PolitiTweet.org
