Boeing settled

The much debated "controversial" Boeing unfair labor practice case concerning the relocation of work to South Carolina has been formally settled. While some suggest the result is due to "pressure", it is unlikely pressure from the right, as The Hill post suggests, contributed to the resolution. Acting General Counsel Solomon is closer to correct. The collective bargaining process worked. The company and the union bargained and as a result of the bargaining, the union requested the relocation charge be withdrawn. Thats the way collective bargaining should work. Unions are free to bargain away ULP's, particularly where there is no identifiable individual discriminatee.
