An Appeal for Sanity: Boeing's Impending Strike

Well, I think they should be prepared for a long strike. I think the contract was a fair one. Certainly many times better than their brothers in Detroit or working for any airline. The IAM although it talks a good story is trying to bleed the company now but I believe it will be disastrous in the long term.

Boeing has a new 737 and 777 coming in the next 20 years. The members of the IAM are going to price themselves out of the opportunity to build those planes. In fact, they nearly lost out on the 787.

So get your money now and hope you retire in the next 10-15 years. Your jobs will be in another state after then.

Ridiculous and very short sighted.
