About to pop open a Bluebird Bakeries banana pudding cupcake and cry some crocodile tears for the bakers union. Bluebird Bakeries is out of Georgia, a right to work state

Sadly it’s the only way to stop Obamacare costs for most companies .
That are trying to survive and compete on the world stage .
Hostess has a right to survive and leave if the Marxists union fools imare trying to destroy them .

I’m would love to see Little Debbie buy their factories and brand names at dirt cheap prices and put the non-union workers back on line.
The union greed is over.

I'm going to add a half-dozen packages of the orange cupcakes to my grocery purchases tomorrow. I do love those nasty things.I see em on the shelf. I figured somebody must like those orange cupcakes. Wow, had one once and that was enough. You are supposed to eat the chocolate ones. In fact.....
I'm heading to the store right now!

Wonder Bread is a reasonably-priced bread. Affordable for those on a budget.

"Our members are on strike because they have had enough," bakers' union president Frank Hurt said in a statement Tuesday. "They are not willing to take draconian wage and benefit cuts on top of the significant concessions they made in 2004 and give up their pension so that the Wall Street vulture capitalists in control of this company can walk away with millions of dollars."

I agree. Unless these brands are so old, as I am, that they can’t sell to anyone anymore. I don’t eat sweets, or cookies, etc. so I don’t know if they are even still in grocery stores.
Clearly on an aisle I don’t go down. I’d imagine along with breakfast stuff, syrup, etc. Not in the “snack” aisle at the stores I go to.

Sooooooo, now 18,000 people go onto UC, dumbass union thugs. Good move, morons!Unions are typical Democrats - even during tough times, they want to be fully insulated from the pain and are willing to totally screw themselves and others to vote their "principles".

Isn’t unemployment a “draconian wage and benefit cut” enough for these people?

Affordable? It’s $2.69 a loaf out here, and never goes on sale cheaper than two bucks. I can buy a 20oz loaf from Aldi for $.79, and it isn’t stuffed with HFCS.

Any worker who goes on strike deserves to loose their job and have it filed by someone who wants to work. They can re-apply after the strike is over, but be put at the bottom of the pile.

How long before Obama declares the Twinky a national treasure, seizes Hostess and gives the company to the unions ahead of bond or stock holders?

They should have moved their bakeries, not just their headquarters to Irving TX

The dumb ass union won’t believe the company about liquidation, and they will be without a job. Happened in Carlisle Pa a few years ago with Fruehauf Corp. They built Tractor Trailers. The employees believed the union leadership and were stunned when the company closed its doors and went out of business.
