No problem. I'm sure these people will be able to find the nearest welfare office easily enough. I hear one can eat pretty well on those food stamps.
Because of Oboma today, these people should be grateful they have jobs. If they lose them, they have no one to blame but themselves for being so greedy and self oriented.
Same thing with A&P foods. The place was huge. There must have been at least a thousand people working there with a 24 hour production line.
The union wouldn't budge. They wanted more, more, more. One night, the trucks pulled up at the loading docks and starting hauling out the equipment.
Last I knew, the building had been torn down and a restaurant built in the empty space.
Hopefully for twinkie and ding dong lovers someone will buy them out and keep making the stuff.
I like the cupcakes myself.
Union dogs.
I’ve eaten these things over the years, but I’ve never been an ongoing customer.
I do consider the products to be an aspect of Americana, and that’s something I would step in to preserve if there was any way possible.
It could be as easy as putting two parties together, but I do think we should try to make sure some things remain a part of the national fabric.
Too creme-filled to fail?
“Vulture Capitalists” indeed.
Reading a great book right now called “Freedom’s Forge” about the industrial buildup prior to and into WWII, and one of the biggest obstacles to industrial growth were the New Dealers, and...unions. And they practiced the same class warfare back then that they do today.
There was a nation-wide railway strike by the railway union scheduled for December 7th, 1941. Well, even pig eyed Marxist liberals saw there might have been something wrong with going through with that.
All through the war, they dealt with union strikes of all kinds while men were fighting and dying overseas. I hate all unions with a white-hot passion.
Note that I don’t “hate” union members in general, I realize many of them have to belong to work in various areas. But I hate the concept, the organizers, and the fever-faced, glassy-eyed, spittle-lipped drones who buy into it wholesale.
Child of the 80s here (born in ‘73). Weird Al was one of my favorites growing up. His ‘Amish Paradise’ still cracks me up, especially since we live in an area with a lot of Amish families.
Thank you! We have been blessed that she is a pretty good kid naturally. She’s well-behaved in school (she’s on A/B honor roll every time) and is excellent with kids of all ages. She volunteered to babysit her siblings (ages 10, 8, and 5) for a while this evening while her dad and I go out for dinner. It’s his 40th birthday today! LOL (he’s a FReeper, BTW)
My daughter and I were walking through a parking lot in a remote part of Wisconsin this summer. We walked by a car with a bumper sticker that said: UNIONS = JOBS. Reflexively, I turned to my also conservative daughter and said, “NOT!!” and we laughed. Immediately thereafter, a man about 15 yards away- very far enough away to not be a part of our conversation- and yelled “my grandfather was a union steward who created many jobs in his town and how Scott Walker is this and that..” It, of course was his car. It was then I understood the term ‘union thug’ because I know if I had been a man, he probably would have punched my lights out!
I ‘wonder’ what the price of the Twinkie brand/recipe will be?............
might be a little cheaper at the bread store i dont know
Twinkies are gross they taste like a chemical. All that crap they make is gross.
Hey unions - purchase Hostess and run it anyway you want Let's see if union work rules expand or contract and you keep championing regulations, green energy, higher business taxes, tariffs, and so on. Show us how its done all of you useful idiots.
Well the union members wanted 0bama re elected, they got what they wanted, AND ALL THAT GOES WITH IT!! Karma! Also what are the libs and hipsters gonna do when they get stoned and get the urge to pig out on fried Twinkies?
Will never forget the big guy in “The Deer Hunter”, dipping his twinkies in mustard.
Twinkies, tasty fresh.
But those left in the glove box
Abide forever...
Ding Dongs DIED!
