Oh wow, it was corporate greed and not DEI that did this? What a fucking surprise /s
I was also “graced” with multiple ads for anti-Biden and pro-Trump shirts on Salon. What a timeline.
It’s always corporate greed whether it’s Boeing or Baltimore.
“If you look at the issues of East Palestine, the issues of Boeing, and now this maritime disaster — our transportation system is under attack and it’s corporate greed every step of the way that led to these issues." [Ronald Rexha]
This is what happens when you try to stop paying people to do things right. Rushed and flawed maintenance jobs, skeleton crews on marine vessels, locomotives and aircraft, vastly increasing the size of each vessel to increase the responsibility of each crew. Tragedies like these are the price we all pay for companies’ cost-cutting.
A very wishy washy testimonial from the experts that doesn’t support the thesis. Union safety supposedly saving those guys? No way. Tugs maybe, but he specifically didn’t want to say this port policy was wrong for not using tugs out the whole river. Regaining rudder control after loss of power if the ship wasn’t automated? No way.
