Another idiot who doesn’t understand that unions didn’t do anything for or to #HostessBrands —— what they did do was successfully represent the workers at Hostess for many decades helping to get better wages, benefits and working conditions. The owners and managers of Hostess mismanaged the company and pilfered it into bankruptcy. The union simply didn’t help Hostess continue to rob the workers. MjL
