Screw Safety, Keep the Sheep Happy

NASA is refusing to release the results of a safety about airline safety because they are afraid that the results will cause people to feel less safe.

Think about that for a minute. The conclusion that is inevitable is that if we know how bad things really are, we will lose faith in the airlines. So not only do we get to ride in packed, pressurized cigar tubes after having the TSA rifle through our checked bags and being abused by the understaffed "customer service" folks, the implication is that the only reason the airliners themselves aren't falling out of the sky is sheer dumb-assed luck (or very good pilots).

Hasn't there been other situation where our government has been determined to spin and lie in order to prevent the American people from finding out what was going on? Oh yeah, that pesky war in Iraq.

NASA: Not About Safety Anymore.
