There are now OVER ONE MILLION SIGNATURES from people that want to

SOCIALISM! (are you listening obama?)

And furthermore, an AMERICAN LEGACY, the Hostess company, HAD TO CLOSE
ITS DOORS TODAY THANKS TO OBAMA!!!

Further proof that OBAMA HATES THIS COUNTRY

========================
No, the Hostess closing was due to union greed. When your company is in
bankruptcy, it is blatant stupisity to go on strike and demand more
money.

5,000 union members went on strike, encouraged by the union bosses, AS a
result, 18,500 people are now out of work.

Funny thing- the union bosses still have their six-figure salaries and
their jobs while their (soon to be ex) members now get to collect
unemployment.

As per Hostess, they've had a very tired lineup forever, and American
tastes have changed radically in the meantime.

Not to mention they've been losing money for a while.

Not to mention they pulled the Bankruptcy stunt in 2003 or 2004.

They can blame God, for all it matters. It is/was a poorly run company
with no share earnings to speak of.

But naturally, people who haven't a clue anyway will instantly believe
the PR bull.

Let them secede, right after they pay their portion of the national
debt.

Notice how republicans want to socialize loses but privatize gains?

A couple of notes on Hostess:

1. Upper management got huge pay raises while the rank and file had
their wages cut big time.
2. Management has renegged on pension payments.
3. The current ownsers loaded the company up with debt with the
intention of destroying the unions.

The CEO who gave those raises in January was ousted by March. The new
CEO recinded the raises, and in fact most of the upper management
offered to work for the rest of the year for $1

This is good for local small businesses. Smaller bakeries could cash in
with healthier, fresher products. And our children can do without that
garbage as well.

Being bought and sold three or four times doesn't help.
Buying Drake (?) was a disaster.

Oh...and they filed for Bankruptcy in 2004.
Oh...they filed for Bankruptcy in 2011.

The game plan seems to be, buy up or get sold, change names, run up an
enormous debt, then go Bankrupt to shake some of it off.

In 2004 they laid off/fired 4,000 employees. I don't remember if they
blamed Bush II for that.

Fact is, in 2003 they had 30,000+ employees and in 2012 (now) they have
19,000. This is a very well run company.

Oh...they filed for Bankruptcy in January.

Yes: in January of 2012!!!

I'm confused about how you can file for Bankruptcy twice within 11
months, but I'm sure the heavily leveraged investment firms that own it
want to sell, shake off debt, and make themselves a lot of money.

Very badly run company.

But yeah...it's Obamacare's fault.

The raises came in July.

And yes, they'd go to $1 NEXT YEAR.

What I found in 12 seconds:

(Hostess exec pay raises [July 2012])

Some creditors question Hostess pay raises approved in late July.

Brian Driscoll, CEO, around $750,000 to $2,550,000.
Gary Wandschneider, EVP, $500,000 to $900,000.
John Stewart, EVP, $400,000 to $700,000.
David Loeser, EVP, $375,000 to $656,256.
Kent Magill, EVP, $375,000 to $656,256.
Richard Seban, EVP, $375,000 to $656,256.
John Akeson, SVP, $300,000 to $480,000.
Steven Birgfeld, SVP, $240,000 to $360,000.
Martha Ross, SVP, $240,000 to $360,000.
Rob Kissick, SVP, $182,000 to $273,008.

http://thinkprogress.org/economy/2012/11/16/1203151/why-unions-dont-shoulder-the-blame-for-hostesss-downfall/

And a few days/weeks later they offered huge reductions in pension to
the employees.

The court, apparently, was not amused.
