One of my in-laws worked at Boeing. It's become a demoralizing nightmare. Senior management is incapable of anything but bad faith.

Is the meaning behind your claim that capitalism has led to crony capitalism, and crony capitalism is now leading to the earliest signs of communism? That would be ironic indeed.

Nah, I wasn't pointing to the capitalism-communism 'axis' of things. Competence is apolitical, but it's not something the incompetent can appreciate or understand but can do a whole lot to interfere with (sort of like cows standing in the middle of a single lane road). See the COVID19 falderol if you want an example of the action and effects of incompetence less colored by political overtones.
