Maybe I could have some faith if regulatory bureaucrats were fired when there are major regulatory failures e.g. 737 max. Maybe I could have some faith if police state agency employees were jailed for FISA abuse.
Voting isn't enough because even elected officials aren't allowed to fire these people.
Specifically, FAA allowed Boeing to use software to cover up design flaw (crammed bigger engines under wings which causes pitch up problem) so it would appear to drive like older 737s. Apparently only a test pilot has been charged for falsifying some paperwork. 737MAX should be required to get a new type certification due to the significant changes.

If I were Boeing, I would hire the fired bureaucrat with a lavish comp package and make sure he's at every meeting, conference, get-together, etc. looking well-tanned and happy.
That makes negotiating with the fired guy's replacement much much easier.
