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.)

Opening in Illinois and California is flirting with fire.

Why on earth would they pick those two states both of which have pro-union legislators, outrageous regulatory rules, intimidating bureaucrats who think their mission in life is to find negatives where none exists and to write regulations guaranteed to harass business to a breaking point.

Doesn’t make any sense.

Wish them luck restarting the brand, and I know they'll have a good relationship with gov't agencies like EPA, OSHA, Board of Health, etc.

I also assume the local unions won't picket, but will accept the new (non-union) employees/managers without threats of violence.

I mean, it would be out of character for gov't or the unions to harrass a private business, right?

But last month Apollo Global Management, LLC, and Metropoulos & Co.

May you have success beyond your wildest dreams, shareholders and employees of Apollo!

Maybe it's time for a real Apollo candybar. It would be a hit!
