So for those who haven't heard, Boeing wants to build its 787 Dreamliner airplanes in South Carolina. SC has a lower cost of doing business, and that's probably in part because of it being a right-to-work state. In other words, you cannot be required to join a union as a condition of employment there. Sounds pretty good eh?

Not to the Obama administration and the NLRB. They want to force Boeing to manufacture in Washington, which is not a right-to-work state and requires that employees join the union. Imagine what precedent this would set for other right-to-work states? I think the Governor of South Carolina sums it up nicely here, especially regarding the President's silence on the issue:

im sure they do.  this is why unions suck.  its not their place to say where a business chooses to open plants.

Since when is building a new plant in an area where you're bottom line will be lower considered an unfair labor practice?  Last I heard it was considered smart business.
