Responsibility: Planes and banks

All that I have heard now for several days is just how could the FAA be so lax in their inspection of aircraft maintenance. Also, just why does the federal bank inspectors let banks make loans that violate standard banking practices.

Hello. Who did NOT perform the proper maintenance on the planes? Who made the bad loans? Not the inspectors!!!!

Are we saying that the airline management and the bank management have a duty to violate as many rules as they can talk the inspectors out of shutting them down?

It has been known by professional management people for a hundred years that quality can not be "inspected into" a product or service, inspection is simply a professional method of catching human mistakes. It is the responsibility of the airlines and the banks to manufacture in the quality.

Especially there should not be any "cooperation" between management and the inspectors. Such quality control as this automatically adjusts downward the required quality.
Ot is obvious why the airlines and the banks want to get by with as much reduced expense as they can--considering lawsuits, of course, but I fail to see what the motive could be of FAA inspectors could be for extending illegal practices.

Same with bank inspectors.

The only logical answer is that the government in general , in order to prevent shut-downs- has ordered such management from the top.

I suspect also that rules are written very strictly to influence those approving them, knowing that they plan to ignore some of them.
