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.
It will probably go out of business declaring bankruptcy, to avoid paying any indemnification or fines for the use of emergency resources.
Now they get to organize dives to view the wreckage of the Titan. Twice the business!
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.
