Hostess Brands Inc. said Tuesday night that mediation talks with its bakers union failed and the company will proceed with plans to close down and sell its assets.
Who do the bakers think they are, a bunch of public school teachers - the Mexicans can bake these cupcakes and ship them over the border.
Yes, search does work now. I posted this because you need a subscription to the WSJ to read the other article.
18,500 American jobs headed to Mexico. Another big “win,win” for the union Neanderthals.
Union busters at work - ‘tis a beautiful thing.
I have to confess I’m a ding dong for Ding Dongs. . . was a little depressed after eating what I thought was my last one. . .when lo and behold I found a box in the freezer. To ween off my habit I plan to eat one once a month beginning January. . .maybe by next December the Mexicans will be up and running Ding Dongs across the border!
is the union retarded or what?
In all but four states, strikers are ineligible for unemployment compensation. Does the liquidation of the business "end" the strike or lock it in for perpetuity? If the former, was that the quid pro quo offered to the locals, that they'd have a few years of bennies from Obama while the national played out its strategy?
Union busters? The company lost over a $1 billion over the last decade. Just who busted whom?
Meditation? I just don’t think sitting there cross-legged and humming is going to bring those people to an agreement.
Sugar is also one-fourth the cost in Mexico and Canada as it is in the US.
The workers probably aren’t even aware that their union bosses are operatives of 0bama, seeking to destroy iconic American companies and any other private sector business. Cloward & Piven requires it. 0bama’s mantra is ‘every job is a government job’. When the president meet with moveon.org within days after his re-election, bad things are planned. We’ve got walk-outs at LAX planned, Walmart, and numerous ‘black Friday’ walk-outs. You can bet 0bamugabe is behind this SH!T. He talked about taxes with Richard Trumka?? HAHAAHAAAAAA HAAAAHAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAA yeah right.
This is the failing of both the media and their liberal aspirations. They think "over" only means over for the people that run the business and that now they can take over and make rainbows, chewy bears and unicorns fall from the sky.
Did they really expect the unions to give an inch?
Yes.
No.
Let them eat food stamps and unemployment checks... hell, they’ll be doing better than most of us...
Ding Dong smuggling will become huge!
The drug cartels will have to include them in the marijuana shipments.
(munchies doncha know)
