Washington State government is thinking of raising the Washington State minimum wage to $15 an hour. No wonder Boeing is thinking of manufacturing the 777x some place else. They would do that regardless of incentives from different states.

Boeing is smarter than GM. GM thought the car competition in the U.S. was between GM and Ford/ Chrysler. And paying high wages was no problem because Ford and Chrysler would also have to pay high wages. Boeing knows it competition is all airplane manufacturers. Europe, China , Russia, Canada, Brazil. If it wore to stay in Washington State, it would crash and burn.
