18,000 workers just lost a job Hostess just called it they will shut down

five stars for that!!!!

I've noticed in my state a migration of sorts of union factory workers. They all talk big and know just about everything there is to know. So far, no I've been thru six of em.

As soon as you leave them on their own to do the work they've done in their resume's everything get mucked. Simple fundamentals and industry standards are void in these idiots.

Lying however seems to be a skill they have mastered.

The Unions tried to keep Americans without a degree in a middle class lifestyle and decent retirement like we used to have in the 50s. A wage that lets you live like a human being and not a animal considering if you didnt blow all the money on strippers.

But its all almost gone now.. The laborer class in America is running on 10-18 an hour and one paycheck away from being wiped out.

A news report says more Americans than ever have no savings. no extra. They are living on paycheck to paycheck hanging by a string.

A friend said one reason why it was because of all the illegals driving down wages..

They close it down until 2013 then amazingly Re-Open it "under new management" which is a technicality on paper.

They can then hire all new employee's at minimum wage. These Facsist would pay less than minimum wage if they could get away with it.

These loopholes are great for the 1% but devastating for whole cities and towns across our country.

Don't kid yourself, if the Fascist at Hostess could have bakery's in China, and get it here halfway fresh they would.

"Merchants Have No Country"
by Thomas Jefferson

The 50's, you mean when one man's dollar was enough to raise a family on. Those days are gone and driving down wages by illegals is a consequence of devaluation of the dollar. In other words USURY.

Lol .. doesn't it have a fat lil cartoon man on it? ..

I picked it up at the store a few months ago and there was like a hundred ingredient in it and I threw it back ..

You know very little about the baking industry.

Well one more example of how Unions have destroyed manufacturing in the USA, If they had taken their spoiled asses back to work they would still have a job. Now they are unemployed... Was it worth it Bakers???? Americans better wake up to the future we have garunted for ourselves, Lower wages, lower standard of living. This is how it goes in a country in decline. Our economy is collapsing and Twinkies are not that important

75K is what it takes to squeak by now a days to pay taxes on your home, property, health insurance, schools, vehicles, maybe even a little food, at least if you live in NYS, and most aren't even coming close to that.

This is their logo for their named product, looks a lot like wonder bread packaging mixed with the Pillsbury Doughboy.

Educate me Mr. Hostess

Hostess doesn't own Blue Ribbon, they may distribute in some areas , but Schmidt Backing company owns that one.

End UNIONS!!!!!!! Or we really will lose every bit of manufacturing we have left which isnt much. Americans have got to change their attitudes, we are no longer able to demand a high wage, we cannot afford to run the country. It is sad but true. TPTB will outsource everything. This will become a third world country. WAKE UP

Mitt: That's a lie Clarence,1800 workers produce Twinkies, my favorite snack!

Clarence: All the workers are unemployed, the workers weren't there to save the Twinkies because you weren't there to save the workers.

Clarence: You see Mitt, you've really had a wonderful life.Don't you see what a mistake it would be to throw it all away?

Happy Holidays Pottersville.

Unions are part and parcel to the communist transition of the US. They are the armies of the commie pres obongo.

Thats still a lot of bread and products. We usually have the Mrs Cubbisons stuffing every thanksgiving too.

We better buy our bread in the morning. Probaly the store brand the way this is going. They might be out of stock by evening.

I bet Little Debbie is thrilled

This is why 70% of all GM products are made outside the U.S. Unions certainly served a purpose in 1936, but like everything over time corruption and greed have made it a force of destruction rather than for good. Time to end all unions

Yeah, bet they are partying in their offices right now

I like their Nutty Bars and Cosmic Brownies.

Fudge rounds, and starcrunch MMMMMMMMMMM

Americans can not compete with 90 cents an hour labor from China. It can't be done. Of course the 1% hate unions!
Thousands of Americans have died Here IN AMERICA for the right to form unions.

Coal Mine owners wouldn't pay a living wage so the miners went on strike. The Owners brought in paid assasins and slautered the workers.

Railroad workers went through the same process. Now the 1% have Fox News etc. wanting to end unions.

Manufacture in the U.S. and stamp Made In The USA on it.

Our 1% have always been Fascist, thats not ever going to change. If we totally get rid of Unions the rest of us will be at the mercy of Fascist.

The housing market today is catastrophically expensive, Too many middle man mark ups on everything that goes into a home.

Starcrunch, yeah you bet. All kids love those.. a Little Debbie classic.
