the problem is not having a bad product in the first place but having a good product and letting it go to shit. this was the exact issue with boeing. they had planes the faa was more than happy with but quietly turned their back on quality and the only way the faa knew about it is when people were killed or almost killed. it's nearly impossible to deal with this kind of issue unless you hand over companies to the state essentially. routine inspections can help like with the fda but the people qualified to inspect such complex parts and processes are going to be the same people employed currently with boeing.
