Boeing is paying for all of its outsourcing. When you build all the main components of the aircraft in completely different parts of the world by the cheapest bidder this is what you get, an really expensive erector-set airplane that doesn't quite fit. The machinists struck because thier new contract had little to no protection from outsourcing thier jobs. I find it ironic that boeing blames delays on the machinists when it was the outsourcing in the first place that caused the delay.
