How NLRB helped unions shake down Boeing

The Washington Examiner reports:

After a long-running dispute between Boeing and the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, there's a lot of happy talk coming out of Washington state today. That's because the two sides reached a tentative deal, pending the approval of union members next week. If approved, the Machinists say they will drop their grievances before the National Labor Relations Board, which had led the board to take the unprecedented action of suing Boeing to prevent it from opening a non-union factory in South Carolina. Beneath the happy talk, however, we're left with an ominous reality -- the appearance of a union using the NLRB as its personal weapon to shake down a private company.

Big Brother tells Boeing to get with the program or else.
