The problem is Mr Horton and company failed. Bankruptcy is the failure of a business. If this was Japan, upper management would commit ritual suicide from the dishonor. Instead they are commended for not raping and pillaging more than they aleady are. The main point of this article is that management is rewarded for failure. There is ZERO accountability. I'd be very thorough on my next preflight (as always) after hearing all of this.
