Who gives a sh8t about Boeing? The planes need to be grounded and the software fixed.
I would say there are tons of employees and investors who care about the fate of Boeing. If they end up getting bailed out, then we may all care.
The FAA is opposing the grounding. I think it is wise to ground the planes long enough to determine if both planes had the same problem. Then I would keep the planes grounded until inspections of the entire fleet was completed.
I suspect it was an assembly error, like that hole drilled in the Russian Soyuz spacecraft that had docked with the ISS. In that case, it was the manufacturer of the space craft, Energia, which has had similar mistakes. A worker was found to have drilled a hole completely through the hull of a re-entry module. He tried to seal up the hole with epoxy. He was terminated.
I would not scape-goat Boeing because, anyone familiar with the aircraft design and assembly processes, knows even the controllable actions can go wrong. I am sure they have very solid QC practices. It is the human element these practices are meant to catch. Sabotage is another matter.
