They're all parasites. Literally any random person would be better to replace them, because that random person would actually try to lead the company, instead of just sucking its blood dry. They're the problem.

OK, pick a random person and tell them, "Congratulations, you're now the CEO of Boeing. You will be paid $100,000 a year, because fuck overpaid CEOs, amirite? And if you fail at running Boeing, we'll imprison or kill you. Deal?"

I swear, it's like arguing with 8-year-olds on this site nowadays.

It's not about "failing". Boeing lobbied for special treatment to save some cash instead of fixing a safety issue. For that, the death penalty is appropriate.

Whoa, way to twist the argument. No one is arguing for a lower salary and the death penalty. Exorbitant pay is fine if you're willing to put your life on the line for that kind of money. Plenty of people are.
