The closing, which will affect about 260 unionized employees...Hershey is looking to shift more manufacturing to India, China, Mexico and contractors in the United States...

They're effectively short-circuiting the unions. Hershey must have found some folks that'll watch chocolate being made for less than $35/hour+bennies.

You really think those folks were making 35 an hour with benefits?

I imagine they're paying along the lines of $35 per week and forget the bennies.
