“Hershey’s wants some oompa loompas.”

No, I think the Hershey Union workers want aerospace technician, or critical care medical professional pay for making and boxing candy.

Let’s be realistic about why... if at all... Hershey workers need a union. This is not a major high tech assembly job or a life saving professionals career. It is a JOB making candy. That’s it, making candy.

Blame the unions.

Blame the Baby Boomers.

They are now retiring and shifting their financial investment strategy to short term high growth stocks. For any public company to stay afloat they are driven to reduce operating costs by drastic means just to stay afloat and keep their stock prices from falling into the basement.

A good solid company that makes a profit every year and has tremendous long range longevity in the market can have a worthless stock if they are not demonstrating GROWTH.

Thanks for not only ruining the greatest country on earth handed to you on a golden platter and fed to you on a silver spoon BABY_BOOMERS, but thanks for sucking it dry like a parasite killing its host as it dies.

Wow! They must be getting some high salaries in Mexico! A 10 percent difference in pay. The Mexican workers will be getting LVN or automotive technician pay for just making candy.
