Boeing is not in trouble for money laundering, but the U.S. military is accusing the planemaker of some fiscal funny business involving cleaning supplies. An audit released by the Department of Defense on Tuesday found that the company was overcharging the government for spare soap dispensers on C-17 cargo planes.
Oh man, this looks bad for Boeing. They better offer a stock buyback just in case.
We should nationalize Boeing
Everyone overcharges when it’s a government contract, which is annoying enough because everyone acts like it’s not their money that they’re stealing, but this is just obscene.
They’re stealing a little from themselves, but a lot from everyone else. So it is fine.
Wait you think businesses pay federal taxes?
Fuck 38%. 45% NOW!
Actual overpricing or “black budget” overpricing?
Were they really good ones though?
They were military grade, so no.
It was probably made with industry leading military grade materials using nano technology.
I can imagine Lockheed doing it to find skunkworks, but no so much for Boeing
