NLRB to companies: you must use union workers.
WTF? The NLRB is suing Boeing for opening up a plant in a right to work state. Apparently economic slavery is not just being quietly implemented by the Obama administration any more but has become an open policy enforced by the police powers of the state.
The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has issued a complaint against the Boeing Company, alleging that it violated federal labor law by deciding to transfer a second production line to a non-union facility in South Carolina for discriminatory reasons.
The flimsy excuse from the government is that Boeing is somehow "punishing" union workers. The facts, however, disprove this.
Boeing has made it clear that none of the production jobs created in South Carolina has come at the expense of jobs in Puget Sound and that not a single union member has been adversely affected. In fact, Boeing says IAM employment in Puget Sound has increased by approximately 2,000 workers since the decision to expand in South Carolina was made in October 2009.
Boeing should just announce that they'll move all facilities in states without right to work laws to ones with right to work laws. Let the government try to shut down a major supplier of defense equipment!
