I read the company skipped a load of safety and redundancy checks. Thats crazy...if it's true. Cutting corners to save a few bucks .
I'm not surprised due the greed that exists in the world but this should require the same level of regulation as a plane or a rocket . Not some metal cylinder with a $30 controller duct taped inside it.
So, they made their ~~sea~~bed and now lie on it?
It's hard to find empathy for those guys.
Hopefully the company goes out of business and there is someone held accountable but I won't hold my breath. Its sad for the families all the same.
Sure, it's sad for the families, but I find that my empathy is better off being spent elsewhere.
Even if some employee got caught in this CEO's whims, that employee already sold his life away upon embarking on a sub made by a company whose head thinks "safety just is pure waste."
What's a waste is this CEO not surviving to regret his very words.
