Hostess had offered a contract that would allow them to stay open and keep their jobs, but the union decided that not losing wages was more important than saving a company and jobs
This is nonsense.
More like corporate greed being more important than the livelihood of workers and screwing them over - business as usual in other words. It is just more proof that the reconciliation between labor and capital is a fallacy - unions and government institutions in general are not problems, they are symptoms of a much deeper problem, that problem being capitalism and its irreconcilable class antagonisms.
