Doing what they do best. Destroying everything they touch. This is how the filthy-rich avoid responsibility for their neglect, ignorance and disregard for human life.

GKN Aerospace corporation is worth billions and they can't be bothered to operate safely while using explosive chemicals

GKN Aerospace is owned by Melrose Industries, a British aerospace manufacturing and investment company based in Birmingham, England. Let's hear it for foreign absentee ownership.

Melrose acquired GKN plc in a high-profile, hostile takeover in 2018 and has operated GKN Aerospace as its primary pure-play aerospace business ever since. That means it is trying to specialize in that area of business.

Melrose, and the filthy-rich hiding behind it's skirts, is trying to use its billions that they get from our government, to handle more explosive chemical facilities. Yeah, they sure know what they are doing.....

They make huge profits off our government contracts. Billions of Our tax dollars line their pockets and they can't be bothered to store explosive chemicals safely.

This is how the filthy-rich exploit us all, with their corporations.
