Thank you Seattle Times. As business owners — Republican and Democratic — your Tuesday editorial on the International Association of Machinists (IAM 751) and Boeing contract negotiations was spot-on. To quote from the editorial: “It is the people who design and manufacture these technological marvels who ought to be valued above all others.”Well said. Employees are the lifeblood of any business. Without them, a business cannot survive.
