    Boeing’s new CEO announced layoffs for 17,000 employees in order to “stay competitive.”

    Was Boeing trying to “stay competitive” when it spent $68B on dividends and stock buybacks over the past decade?

    Or when it handed out multi-million dollar golden parachutes to failed CEOs?

      Just trying to make sure that they aren’t slacking in the greed department. That’s really the primary competition these days.
