“You are forgetting that there’s a management team behind this company’s activities ~ and union or not they’d be going out of business anyway...”

I don’t think ANYONE can do what-ifs in these types of cases. We have plenty of poorly managed companies here in Texas, but they a HUGE BOOST by having a flexible, non-angry, workforce, that wants them to succeed - rather than wanting to stick it to them.

But even if you’re right, these workers will have still kept their jobs for a while, maybe long enough to outlast Obama. But the UNION prevented any of that.

I am right ~ this company is in its second round of banruptcy. Time for liquidation.

The cooked wheat business has taken on a new form ~ it's mostly highly mechanized, even automated!

Clever engineers figured out how to make small modular bakeries that can be stuffed into neighborhood grocery stores, or other stores, and then operated by unskilled labor.

The days of the bakers union have come and gone ~ the big bread manufacturing factories are done.
