Remember when NASA used to make good spacecraft? I think they should look at their program and analyze if they should abandon their new designs.

Can't build space craft can't build air craft..... Boeing should be broken up.
Too big to fail?

clarification...NASA never made anything. It was mostly Lockheed and other contractors. I get what you're saying though. Sadly, they've lost all knowledge of how they did things back in the day

The irony is rich in this one. Dragon would be the best option but I wonder about the space suits - would the Starliner suits mate up with Dragon systems. I'd think they'd send up some empty suits with the rescue ship.
However and but, NASA has a history of ignoring warnings about safety so who knows what they'll do.
