Yes, this ought to be big news when you see what OK and OKC gave them.
$43,800,000 in 21st Century Quality Jobs Program
$11,000,000 given to them also for job creation incentives.
$2,000,000 given to them from the Quick Action Closing Fund.
$6,000,000 given to them from OKC for job creation incentives that they received earlier this year.
$62,800,000 total given to Boeing for the creation of 459 jobs now (im assuming now) and 369 jobs over next 10 years. All this comes out to $75,845 per job.

Helluva deal for Boeing. No real way of knowing if its a helluva deal for Oklahoma since we dont study or review these incentives.

See above and you might have a more accurate answer on why they picked Oklahoma. Who cares about right to work if you are given $62 MILLION!

I wondered the same. Because why would they need so much money from Oklahoma if they arent even building and owning their own Oklahoma headquarters.
