While I am amused because dRump is a cheat and liar, these Boeing nimrods deserve it. As they began in Seattle, let me tell you, they have a l-o-n-g history where they've cost us more than most other mega-industries in our state. They have not paid a red cent in taxes for decades, yet whine to the legislators because their State Industry costs a are "too high." This, after laying off thousands and then providing a few months "assistance" laying them off at a whim ~ after importing people from all over the world and country and leaving them high and dry. Then after these funds tap out, leaving the community in depression when so many other businesses died because of Boeing's layoffs, they expect us to pay for the myriad of services these people need

Believe me I am an FDR democratic socialist who believes in helping our fellow humans. But when they bring these people from all over hell and part of Texas and expect us to foot the bill they caused, that is beyond an insult.

My 2 cents, Cat in Seattle
