Makes you wonder. If the machinist union drove them there it seems management may have been outsmarted.

Didn’t they just move offices there? They can move those in a holiday weekend.
Now after the tanker contract is sealed, maybe they will.

Of course, that may have come from the folks who wanted (and got) a new opera house in Dallas.

Have to realize, Boeing is so used to sucking the federal tit that they never even thought about the State they were in.
Too bad, their loss. CAT has the opportunity to do the right thing.

I sort of remember that Boeing’s move to IL was somewhat strategic and may have been part of their d-unionization as happened with the SC & OK expansions. Maybe pretty smart move actually. I think that CAT Corp. may be a good catch for the great state of SC!
