Corn Dog User ID: 27805376 United States 11/19/2012 04:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Guys, a federal judge ordered them to have talks to work out a deal. Obama is strong arming them to no liquidate and keep all 18,000 overpaid workers working. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24473407 I heard this and think it is wrong. Can a judge order them to talk out a deal? WTH. The company wants to shut down, let them. I truly can't believe that Obama is involved in this. Does Michelle know? Hasn't the 1st lady declared a war on junk food? If Obama is involved in this, she's gonna kick his @ss. |

This keeps them off the taxpayer and supports the entire economy since Americans buy from all of us. If you want everyone to be making the minimum wage then go live in a cardboard box in Mexico! |
JesseDart User ID: 1596989 United States 11/19/2012 05:14 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yet it's the unions that caused this mess? Fucking idiotic bootlickers, wake the hell up. The US is allowing corporations to make slaves out of us all through legislation written in their favor and lowering wages to near poverty is one of the first steps. Some of you idiots not only welcome it, you actually are asking for it by backing the suits and stomping your fellow laborers. Morons |

The American wont be able to afford the house pmt and the economy will continue to slide negative. The new workers w/no healthcare benefits will be supported by American taxes. |

Quoting: - 14012564 You sir are a communist and a purveyor of economic misery. Every sort of government intervention and price control results in disaster, economic doom and as a byproduct reduced government coffers. The only thing government should be doing is to do what Teddy Roosevelt did, bust the trusts and break up all monopolies. Instead government reinforces the monopolies, their real clients. With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24473407 Hey idiot, get with it. Hostess International Bakeries is gone....done...history...over...kaput. Their trademark, routes, and recipies will be sold in bankruptcy court. I think there are 4 offers already. If a non-union bakery in the USA or an overseas company buys the rights to market the products, the new products will be much cheaper and likely have better ingredients. |
