Boeing is too-big-to-fail in both civilian air travel and military procurement. They know they don’t have to give a shit, because the Federal government will always give them a slap on the wrist and another chance. They’ve literally forgotten how to compete deliver a working product on schedule, because for generations nobody has required them to do so.

It would be nice if the government did what they did with GM... Hostile take over, clean house, restart and eventually release.

Maybe people have a negative impression of the GM take over, but it was the best option and "worked".
