Boeing strike

[jellyrug]

Union wants a 40% wage increase?

With doors falling off planes, plus all Boeing's issues, this is concerning.

I'm Bias, always been on the other side of Unions, had to negotiate with them and deal with them. So I believe their demands are unreasonable. Not a good sign for America.

What do you think?

I think they will most likely get what they are asking for or close to it.....either that or they will be on strike for a long time. But I think the US government will step in as they have a lot of miliary projects/procurements going on.

However, like you say, Boeing has had some serious issues which will push buyers away from them...

No need to tell you how expensive it is to employ North American workers......

Maintenance issue? Who’s responsible for maintenance? Those asking for more money? Airlines and aircraft makers make tons of money. See their payouts recently? And they’re still in business. How’d you like to have a company that paid out this kind of money and still be solvent?

“In a financial filing on Wednesday, the company reported having paid $400 million to 737 Max customers in 2023, after paying $1 billion in 2022. All told, those two crashes and the grounding of the Max 8 for nearly two years cost Boeing about $20 billion.”

The company was an American icon. Now close to $60 billion in debt, stock price down from $250 to $150 since January.

Sad situation.

One of those "bubble gum" singers amongst many.....

She’s 34 years old with a net worth over a billion dollars Bee, what’s your definition of a bubble gum singer?

America’s sweetheart. Sad to see her get involved in politics and LBGTQIA issues.

A singer who looks and sounds like all the rest...her worth means very little to me...I honestly could care less about her wealth.

I lump her in with all the rest of those "kiddy-pop" singers.

It’s obvious you haven’t seen her perform to be able to compare to ‘all the rest’. She sings quite well, no shouting out the lyrics, plays guitar and piano I think, and (doesn’t) appear on stage with a bare ass and nipple covers twerking to the crowd just like ‘all the rest’. The recent VMA show proved that over and over.

Sadly many of these sorts of people use their soap box to get into these areas....lots of their fans or potential fans turn away from them as a result..

I read an article where the singer "Pink" told anyone who didn't support the LGBT community to stop listening to her music....wow, there's a real theat......

It's not that obvious, I have 5 grand daughters after all...I know what I'm talking about.....

Her involvement takes nothing away from anyone.

She does some pretty dark stuff at her shows, very satanic ritual like performances between songs.
Hardly the wholesome role model she once was.

and aren't her songs written about former lovers?

Apparently alot of them are, but I don't listen to her music, and my daughter doesn't either.

You are a fan, obviously. I have always liked her, she has a tremendous influence on young people. Why it’s best not get partisan.

And why is it best not to get partisan? Because she has influence?

Because she has a big fan base on both party sides, best to focus her music and her performance.
