    The unions want job security. Boeing is farming more and more of it’s work out to contractors, and there is no way for the union to make sure those contractors are also union. So that is what they are striking about. The rest of it is most likey just posturing.

    If I was Boeing, this is something that would tell me to start farming even more stuff out. This is what has gotten the big 3 auto makers introuble. Guarenteed workforces at payrates that are the top of the industry.

    How about a profit sharing program,

    if 12% of the profits went to the workforce, maybe they’d
    actually be with the program.

    And as far as i can tell the management offer is pretty poor.
    11% increase over three years plus COLA, given how piss poor
    CPI is, i can see why they are striking.
