It is said that catastrophes are a matter of pure chance, and there were those who would have said that the passengers of the Comet were not guilty or responsible for the thing that happened to them. … “

Company A recognizes and acknowledges the professional judgment of the Pilot-in-Command (PIC) for each flight. The Pilot-in-Command of a flight has the ultimate authority over the safe operation of that flight. This authority cannot be ceded to any other employee or passenger, regardless of title or position within the company or its Board of Directors. The PIC shall report to the [CEO] the name of any passenger who attempts to over-rule the PIC’s decision, and that person will be subject to disciplinary action, including, but not limited to, restrictions on his/her travel on board Company A’s aircraft and could include termination of his/her employment.

Company A’s Chairman and the company CEO shall not travel in the same vehicles to attend a business meeting, because in the event of a delay, accident or incident, the loss to Company A would be too great. The use of supplemental on-demand lift may be utilized if both positions are required at such meeting. For added security during international travel, the individuals in these positions shall not overnight in the same hotel.

With that in mind one onders why so many high profile politicians traveled in the same plane and why the pilot was (probably) ordered to land despite bad weather and different advice from the ground. This shows how crucial it is to develop and follow guidelines for any organization like presented above.

Staus, nicht gestreute Straßen, Finanzierungsengpässe, Baustellen im Schneckentempo… wieviel Gründe muss man eigentlich noch aufführen, dass man über das Konzept “Der Staat kümmert sich um die Infrastruktur.” neu nachdenkt? Aber das ist wohl ein heiliges Pferd, wer möchte denn schon Geld für die Benutzung von Straßen bezahlen? (Obwohl wir es ja alle trotzdem schon über die Steuer tun)

Nope. And after reading the article and the comments I no longer wonder about how something like Eugenics came into existence. More clear than ever I see the causes of this socialist anti-life attitude. First you say “Oh, look how friendly I am, I am a socialist, I like people”, then, when reality steps in and resources become limited you say “Oh, look, they are exploiting our generosity. They are to blame!” Next thing in line is calling for genocide, see the whole global warming religion. The usual “Other people are bad, I want everything for myself.” attitude.

So, when we have discovered that it wasn’t just a natural disaster, what do we do? Continuous disaster-management around the world cannot be the answer. Instead, this leads to people relying on help instead of facing the dangers that may come in the future. The least thing is to speak up, to blame the real causes for this disaster, to educate people about them and to lead by example. In a way, we are responsible for those deaths as well. Lacking a capitalistic form of government we did not allow everyone to enter our countries that wanted to immigrate.
