Boeing’s 787 line goes to South Carolina.
The announcement came Wednesday afternoon, ends weeks of speculation, debate and negotiation. Boeing and the Machinists union were reportedly deadlocked over a deal in which the labor group would promise not to strike should the second line be in Everett.
Workers at the South Carolina plant recently voted to remove the union from the North Charleston plant.
State lawmakers just completed an incentive package to bring the line to South Carolina.

@50, you and Reality Check and David really should go bowling together sometime. I’m sure you’d all hit it off.
As for you, Reality Check darling, thank you for calling me cute. When you get to be my age you don’t hear that too often, so I’ll take it any way that I can get it.
As for being a “hipster”, I’m always amused when people like you throw that around as a pejorative, and it’s especially funny when you aim it at me: I’m am about as unhip as one can get – on my best days, I’m what I would generally call “Nouveau Matronly”. But I was hip in my day, and I believe that every young person should go through a hipster phase, lest they become boring and bogged down in what they consider “reality”.
But onto other things…. You say that I am “marginalizing” you, but to back up your blind ideology, you only reference vague “blogs/websites” where “analysts” reinforce your charmingly idealistic and touchingly naive worldview. I could do the same thing on my side, and they would doubtless be more credible to me and less credible to you, but what would be the point?
I think you’re wrong in this instance – or at least applying a much too simple judgment to it – and you are too committed to an ideology which is making you more and more defensive. Read back on your posts: Either you are deliberately contrarian, or you are deeply conflicted.
