Cue the crony capitalism apologists claiming that crony capitalism “works”. It does work, just for a very small % of people.
Of course, those same people aren’t about to have a debate on the morality of middle class taxpayers not connected to the gravy train subsidizing it all….just focus on the “success” of those connected to it and ignore the greater costs.
Disclosure: I especially like the part where Boeing and their subcontractors bought some really fancy, exotic and expensive electronic parts from Me! … Those parts were manufactured in Korea, the most advanced technological society the world has ever seen, ’cause no one in North America makes ’em anymore. Korea also buys Boeing airplanes … AND that is how that works?
Another reason the SC General Assembly wants to raid your pockets. Its time to bring out the ropes for a hanging.
… And watch how Boeing deals with those errant poli-wogs = The big cold shoulder come campaign contribution time, ya betcha.
The Rope is a bit over the top, but I’l be happy to loan you my baseball bat.
No, it starts with SC demanding Boeing give back the millions SC borrowed and then gave to Boeing without SC ever asking what the money would go for and Boeing never offering an explanation. A loan we taxpayers will have to pay off without ever understanding why we got the shaft!
Dan, please explain how this loan is structured, and just how much it will cost me over how many years.
Can’t answer. Sorry. I’m just a citizen. I don’t know if your elected representatives can answer, either. I only know what I read on the ‘Net, and that is that the loan was rushed through the legislature without public comment. I think it was intended to win for SC the plane contract that went to Wash. state. Boeing got the money and just kept quiet about it, so far as I know. Ask Nikki to tell us in a public forum.
“… Boeing got the money and just kept quiet about it …”
Except for the building of the extra taxi-ways and runway access and the new airport landing electronics and the new roadways around the plant and …
All of that stuff was in the news, right FITs?

Bill, I might take a stab at that: Those Boeing subsidies won’t cost you a single shiny thin dime. Boeing will be paying vastly more in taxes into the SC state treasury than they will be taking out … (This is a ten year deal, lest you all forget, and Boeing will still be paying taxes long after the subsidies have run out and been “paid for” by SC government.)
Yeah! … And break up those brand new runways while your at it, We want our concrete back, too.
Even better: get your SC government subsidies back from those who gave them away: the SC legislature/governor/g’union-employee complex … Its called a pay cut.

Ha! Ha! Yea, break up those runways, FastEddy! Who needs an “international” Greenville airport when we ain’t gonna have no “international” flights in your lifetime or mine? It’s all we can do to keep short hops. Wait! How about drag races on all that concrete? Let’s turn GSP into a scooter court! Have some fun!
