    Boeing has MASSIVE government contracts, and does a ton for both the military and NASA. They’re absolutely bailout material, as much as it hurts me to say.

      I’m waiting for a condition of the bailout to be separating Boeing Defense from Boeing Aerospace, so the aerospace side can fail

        Well looking at their income per sector commercial is the largest. And they probably split r&d across these sectors. So losing civil aviation probably would mean they can be less competitive as defense contractors.
