The workers committed job suicide and now the taxpayer will fund their decision. Nothing new here. I'm sure they were warned before the vote, but they made their decision. I feel sorry for the 120 that most likely did not vote for it.

Twinkies can be made faster and cheaper in China with only four days shipping to USA Ports. Container delivery to all of the lower 48 in two more days. All shipments sold at Walmart Superstores within 48 hours of receipt. Hardly a blip on the anticipatd shelf life of the product.:whistling:

Those who voted for the union were probably all Obama voters anyway, so they were just preplanning their gubmit retirement package. I would be looking to hire those who voted no. They want to work.

As for Twinkies, crap in a cellophane wrapper. Here's what they're made of...

Union people call The Rich greedy, but it is the unions that are greedy, including public sector unions. Suspect the accuser.
