I'm sorry to hear about your wife losing her job, but the unions didn't put Hostess out of business. Shoddy management did. They were already going out of business anyways, and the strike was to hold on to the pensions that the hedge funds and private equity firms were trying to take away before going under.
The company's assets would be worth more to them if they didn't have to pay out those pensions, so naturally they wanted to get those out of the picture.
