I feel uncomfortable as a taxpayer having inadvertently supported Boeing and they are literally falling apart.

You think Airbus is gonna expand its capacity to build even more planes?

According the Airbus themselves, they finished 2023 with a backlog of 8598 orders, and they delivered 735 planes that same year. They are occupied for years ahead and it's probably not so simple to increase production.
