Boeing never designed the C-17 nor did they decide where to build it. It was a McDonnel-Douglas plane that Boeing inherited after the merger in 1997. The building where DC-9/MD-80/717 line was located and land where it sits on have been sold to developers. Once the C-17 line shuts down, it will also be redeveloped.

Since I've been a McDonnell Douglas stockholder since 1974, I know this. The Production of the C-17 could have been moved at any point in the last 10 years and would have saved the taxpayers Billions, but where is the incentive to save taxpayers Billions?

Moving an already established production line isn't cheap.
