Hi /pol, I am an average American worker. I support Trump. I can not trust our politicians because they get checks from corporations. I was interviewed today at work and this is what I had to say. I was the first interview wearing my Make America Great Again hat.

>Tldr; 8.7 billion tax payer dollars laying off American workers.
>>69333955
They sent your jobs to china. Sorry brother, it's fucked up here too. Best of luck with the elections.
>>69333955
the left fucked up by letting labor move overseas.
since then, the left has had nothing but identity politics to rest on.
>>69334126
Does the left even acknowledge the lost jobs?
What's their response?
>>69333955
Boeing has 161,400 employees; 4000 is nothing. Just some excess fat. Relax MAGA boys.
Industry is destroyed by the financial system
The FED hands trillions to Goldman Sachs who keep it all while the real economy is left to decay. That's why no matter how many million you give to Boeing it doesn't matter because the real economy is being destroyed by Wall Street.
The solution is to bail out taxpayers and not Wall Street.
>>69334301
80,0000 jobs in Washington state. This is 10 percent of the work force. Who is paying you ?
>>69334301
Tell that to the 4000 unemployed people.
Next year:
>Boeing claims IP stolen by various companies.
>Boeing blames foreign subcontractor for spate of aircraft explosions.
is this real?
>>69333955
I live in Seattle and I own Boeing stock
I'm gonna sell it
this shit may not cost them like it should but it will cost them my 20k
I can't see it for some reason, any mirror OP?
>>69334534
> You live in china
> I cant filter the great wall of firewall for you
>>69334617
Nah, the player just don't load for me
Boeing employee, ama, less classified stuff.

That it, like everything else negative, is the fault of Republicans.
>>69334729
Washington is a democrat stronghold. How do republicans fit in your argument?
>>69334782
But Boeing also operates out of Wichita, which is in Kansas, a Republican stronghold.
I'm not saying it makes sense. I'm saying that they blame Republicans for shit being so bad, then people vote in Democrats, who make shit worse, but blame it on Republicans in the hopes that fools will still buy into the Democrat dream.
No matter how bad things get, Democrats never want to stop any of their programs. They just think that it needs even more tax money to succeed.
Deal with it. It's cheaper in China. Don't bitch about Boeing about cutting jobs (this really is an overglorified version of whining about being fired, stop being fucking lazy and get off your ass and find another job. Else, there's another reason at play for why you can't find a job.
Blame the very source of the problem as to why it is more beneficial for corporations to move to China.
Else, tell me why not. Why the fuck shouldn't I blame the source of the problem? Why should I blame Boeing instead, and focus directly on this one company out of thousands that are moving their production to China?
I know I'm being a dick here and repeating myself but come the fuck on man.
>A company spokesman said about 1,600 positions will go through voluntary redundancies while the rest will take place through attrition.
>The bulk of the layoffs is set to come from its commercial aircraft division as customers cut back on orders.
So a bunch of people will be offered packages to leave and the company will just stop hiring people for a while.
>Boeing delivered a record 762 planes last year, exceeding its previous forecast. However, last year saw a big fall in new orders. Customers in the Middle East and Asia, who had been on a spending spree, have been cutting back. As of 31 December, Boeing's backlog of orders stood at 5,795, representing more than seven and a half years of production at the current rate. With Boeing and Airbus factories running at full capacity, airlines have been reluctant to spend billions of dollars on aircraft that they would not receive for several years.
Not a big deal, considering airbus is going through the same thing with everyone who wants new aircraft in the next few years having already ordered them.
>>69333955
Reading into this story, it doesn't say anywhere that the jobs are being outsourced. The company is just straight up cutting all of it's costs in an attempt to restructure. Really don't know how you're tying Trump, Clinton and the Feds into this
>>69334250
They don't acknowledge it.
>>69334942
I could see it coming, honestly. It's why I quit (was an electrician), and took a pay cut to work in a publicly owned power plant. 3rd shift work means I get paid to post on 4chan. Public work means that I don't worry about getting fired.
I still make enough to live comfortably.
>>69335006
Jobs are in fact being outsourced. The company just covers it up by outsourcing to Boeing vendors. That makes it look like everything is staying in house.
>>69334942
> I have a college degree and can find work else where
> The point is why do American tax payers give Beoing Billions to move else where?
> Washington the democratic state should withdraw their 8.7 billion dollar incentive package
> I know slaves can work for 1 dollar an hour
> Outsourcing with our trade deals make sense
> Tax payers should be outraged
>>69335006
Google outsourcing the 787. Inform yourself

It's failed miserably for them
>>69335082
Your plan is a solid one but the fact that this position exists is a little sad.
>>69335337
> Boeing by all means can outsource
> The shit world economy is slowing down
> Why should you and me who pay taxes give it to a giant corporation who in the end says fuck you, I am going to China?
> People dislike unions, this just gives them more ammo
> Boeing takes from me, you, and your family and still sends jobs over seas
>>69335370
787 outsourcing was a God damn joke. I was doing rework in fucking Spanish.
>>69335497
True, but I'm the only city employee besides police that works 3rd shift (county does the ER), and electric production is also the only place that has a second shift.
It's essentially one employee that takes hourly readings, and wakes city people up if you have a pipe break, a 200lb tree limb fall in the road, a sign stolen, or an electrical line go down after hours. You call me, I pick up and get your call where it needs to go.
>>69335643
I worked on the 787 and when I had an engineer drawing written in Spanish I had to get a Mexican translator. Labinal Builds 787 wire bundles. Our wire systems are outsourced that I install.
>>69334301
Say that to the people that were fired.
>>69334301
This is what 8000 people look like. You are a heartless asshole.
>>69333955
>capitalism bad
You a commie ?
>>69336297
Crony capitalism and corporatism is not what our founding fathers had in mind you peace of shit.

None of that merited greentext

You don't know how to green text, it's okay.
Kim orders breakfast.
>a week of pay for every year of service
That's it? My company did voluntary "early retirement" last spring and they gave you three weeks pay for every year of service. Pretty fucking lousy on Boeing's part
>>69336257

My family hates that I do not support these democrats/socialist people. Me and my wife do not care. I am my own man. I am screwed as a Washington Citizen.
Alright /pol/ Op is going to bed.

Was that the Sarah Palin gang bang when Glenn Beck cream pied her?
>>69336361
>Crony capitalism
Boeing is not doing anything corrupt or illegal. It's just plain capitalism.
>>69333955
Nothing strange. Not first time Boeing is outsourcing shit to China. They would also outsource production of their military contracts to China in heartbeat if those contracts wouldn't stipulate domestic production.

>>69333955
Gas the elite, class war now!
Boeing is bring all your jobs to India with the Make in India innitiative. You cannot stop any thing because, your wages are too high and if your government imposes more taxes, the company will move it's headquarters to France or some c*cked country.
Wanting Trump to do something about this. What are you a Communist or something?
>>69340201
Roight!
You just made my footnotes.
>>69333955
The best is when Libertarians defend this sort of shit because of "muh free trade" while living off welfare while also crying for closed borders and immigration control.
>>69335337
>http://www.bbc.com/news/business-35923227
Didn't Trump call this? I think he told NC to watch out for Boeing and their jobs.
>>69340295
Since you cannot poo in the loo....will indian build Boeings have designated shitting aisles?
>>69340499
Sure, if you want to join our unique culture, you can start shitting on the aisles too.
>>69336361
>peace
>>69334942
>international free trade is good for western countries
this meme needs to stop, especially considering china doesn't play the free trade game.
>>69340405
lol when have libertarians been calling for closed bordes? theyre all open borders faggots everywhere you look even ron paul.
>>69334250
It's ignored or just blamed on the cucked republicans. It's fucking disgraceful
>>69339267
>government being lobbied by corporations to get rid of protectionism for domestic industries is totally capitalism and exactly what the founding fathers had in mind
>>69334354
Goldman Sachs is Jewish. Therefore we need socialism. Go fuck yourself.
>>69336361
>Crony capitalism and corporatism is not what our founding fathers had in mind you peace of shit.
Yes, because Trump will totally solve that. Are you retarded or just very naive?
>>69334250
They moved to very conservative attitudes once the banks fully took hold.
>muh free market
Sanders is the only one shitting up that narrative, but it's Sanders lol. I guess Hillary took notice of his support and started giving lip-service about bad trade deals, but everyone knows she'll say anything politically expedient at a single time and then later flip flop.
There are rumors that regular union people this time (not the management, of course) are flipping to Trump.
>>69334942
Because they've been floated by our tax dollars. What a shit deal to have been publicly subsidizing this company and then for them to turn tail and take all that value out of the country and lay off thousands of workers.
I don't normally get pissed off about this, but if they really *have* received 1 billion+ in tax money, it's fucking disgusting.
And to no one's surprise the boomer with 30 years at the company thinks everything is just dandy.
OP, what do you make of what the last guy said, that this is just temporary until they can switch production to other models?
>>69334681
any cool shit/technologies in the pipeline?
whats the next big step in passenger aviation?
>>69334126
>the left fucked up by letting labor move overseas
Yeah, Reagan was such a fucking leftist
>>69335679
sounds pretty fulfilling
>>69333955
you should thank FAA for needing to """test""" every part for god know how many hours. And for having to start whole """testing""" again when one part was changed. even if it's a fucking resistor.
>>69340705
not all
>>69342421
You can't build a plane in 5 years and then hope it will never crash m8, that's not how it works it's not only FAA it's for every company even outside the US
