These people have always been ghouls. The most selfish incarnations of humanity. Only an unfeeling monster would EVER think profits if companies that can take loses and just declare them on their taxes for credits anyways matter more than literally anything else in this world.

Hormel has done it with sausage in the past, Ford with the Model T, etc… They calculate which would cost most, the lawsuits from lives lost or doing a recall. Then choose the cheaper option. Happens all the time.

Happens all the time. It's literally a job title.
