If they raised the taxes at your place of work and you could go to another company and pay thousands less, would you? Thats the correct question in this case.

Well, the fact that Boeing is literally pulling the strings behind the scenes on this one should tell you who really is in control of this issue.

Whats good for Boeing is good for Washington.
With the recent huge orders, they are going to need some people who can think. 10M is well worth it if it keeps Boeing happy.

They've made $2.65 Billion year to date. They need the state's $10 million? Really?

They need it as much as they need more tax breaks.
Fish on...

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.

I'm with grizz1.  We should eliminate ALL taxes and regulations that negatively affect Boeing's bottom line. We should make unions and collective bargaining illegal here in Washington state and give them free reign to all of our taxpayer-funded public resources. They're a business and need to make money after all.

Need some high tech trained employees? Get them where they've always gotten them. The US Navy, US Air Force and US Army. Not hard to get those guys up to speed, and many of them are looking for jobs.  Probably their #1 resource for new hires. And they do train easily

C'mon 4Salt. What we are looking for is some balance. Washington needs to be comptetive or we will see all of those planes built elsewhere.
There definentely should be a preference to hire vets. That should be worth some tax incentives.
