Makes more sense to buy the patents, the distriburting rights and teh euipment.

Pack it all up and ship it to a right to work state. Start again there.

The National Labor Relations Board would never let that happen and the Dept of “Justice” would support them.

Tennessee is a right to work state, and the Hostess workers are on strike here too. That does not mean that the parent company can not fire them all and hire non-union workers...and if you want your job back you start at beginner's wages and lose seniority. LOL

We are watching the Men who made America and it is interesting the method's Carnegie went to with his manager Fisk to kill over worked, really under paid for the dangerous jobs they did and in dangerous conditions. The stand off/strike resulted in 9 workers dead...Pinkerton's killed them willy nilly, the workers were armed at best with rocks. They shot them like sitting ducks in one of those shooting gallery things. Some of them barely 18.

I can see how unions got a foot hold, but they have FAR exceeded what they originally were about worker safety and a fair wage for the job performed.

My dad was a boiler maker in one of the largest steel mills in E. Chicago, IN, Youngstown Sheet and Tube. Union was useless when he accidentally fell and damaged his neck and spine and was injured to the point he could no longer do his job.

Right to work and hire at will states are not all they are cracked up to be. Yes, we have jobs but the companies don’t care anything at all about the employees because they know they can treat them any way they want to treat them. I hate unions as much as anybody here but there needs to be a middle ground. TN has no labor laws except for the Federal laws. The company I work for is a major employer and we are forced to work 12 hours a day 7 days a week whether we are able to or not. I worked 168 hours in the last 15 days. I worked 12 hours a day for 7 days on first shift, got one day off and worked 7 nights for 12 hours a night. I’ve been there 36 years and have never been treated as badly as we are now. The major company that bought us recently is H*** to work for. They fire people over 50 for no reason just because they can. All of us over 50 are walking on eggshells all the time because by TN law they can hire and fire at will. I am 58 and have been a faithful employee for almost 36 years with a perfect work record but I can’t continue to work like this.

Be careful what you wish for.
