That’s what really hacks me off.
They (the state) offered Boeing 9 BILLION DOLLARS in tax incentives.
Now, they are talking about raising the gas tax so they can spend it on roads and infrastructure that helps Boeing.
Meanwhile, the machinists told Boeing to take a flying leap, after Boeing practically GUARANTEED them 8 more years of employment, what’s that, A QUARTER of the average persons employment lifetime?
Now, the machinists are crying in their beer about how unfair Boeing is...
They need to man the hell up. They tried to push Boeing around, and it said “No thanks!”
Would not surprise me one bit if in 20 years, there is no Boeing in Washington state.
If Boeing moves from one libtard state (WA) to another even more pitiful state (CA), they deserve everything they get in the long-term, from strikes, slowdowns, taxes, etc.
