What's not being put back to work are the former Hostess unionized employees.

Good news. Without a union, they are free to manage their company without the deadweight of parasitic unions. If they treat their new employees fairly, pay them competitively and allow them to fulfill their aspirations, they will be giving them more than a union ever could.

The union playing hardball during collective bargaining really worked out well, didn’t it?

They’re going to open a plant in LA?
Couldn’t they find anywhere else in the west with higher taxes and more regulations?

Perhaps we are seeing the spark of a new business paradigm. Structured bankruptcy to dislodge parasites like a breaching whale, then reconsolidate operations without the troublemakers.

This is giving me a giant plate of Schadenfreude...The dumbass union thugs take a hard line against the company, lose their jobs, only to see their brands re-emerge, with a new owner, no unions, and no jobs for them! Brilliant!
(In fairness, I think it was only one union that took it down. The other unions had agreed to concessions.)

TAA is a lavish program doled out by the Labor Department for laid-off workers who've lost their jobs due to "global trade." Is that why they lost their jobs? Twinkies went global? Nope.
