Boeing's Franken-sourcing Fiasco

Boeing is forced to stop construction of the 787. The company shed thousands of Seattle-area jobs for an essentially ideological faith in outsourcing, which resulted in parts (like wings) that didn't fit, years of delays, and loss of orders. Had they listened to the unions, had they stood by their spirit of the tax agreement they had with Washington State, this Franken-sourcing fiasco might have been avoided.
