I heard that too. I sure hope it isn't going to be the case.

I hope not too, but I'm originally from Flint, Michigan and saw GM do the same thing.

maybe they are looking for a more buisnes frendly state, if you ride employers to hard they will go somewhere else along with those jobs which hurts your local job market and tax base,,,,some states are more frendly to biusnes and get them to relocate jobs to there state creating jobs
even with tax breaks they create a better tax base for state programs from the workers at those plants, if you regulate and tax corparations to hard they will go somewhere more frendly and its the employees that pay the price if they dont or cant move with them

With the young people in the area going to Microsoft, Amazon, Nintendo type tech jobs, Boeing is having a hard time finding workers here in Washington that want to work and get their hands dirty. There is also a sense of entitlement with the Boeing workers here who want to go on strike everytime they get their panties up in a bunch. Now down in SC their are fewer options for a worker to fall back on and no union making Boeing one of the best games in town.
Living here as a kid I remember if you worked at the big B you were doing good but their starting wage is now like $14 with mandatory overtime. What kid wants to do that ?
