There were 8,600 737 MAX flights per week before the crashes, operated by 50 carriers around the world. Do you know what fraction of those were in the US?

Right. Because if there's A) Management, and B) a Union, and C) a problem, then the problem must be due to the existence of the union! And you haven't been so thoroughly immersed in propaganda for 35 years that you can't think anymore...
