The executives of the Hostess Company got a two-fer.
By wrecking and then selling the company, they got huge paychecks from being bought out and then they broke the union.
Of course, they wrecked and ruined many workers lives and finances and homes and home lives but what the heck?
What do they care?
They nothing but won.
For themselves.
And on top of it all, plenty of middle-class, working-class Americans think this is a good thing.
Shoot me now.
