point is, you can spread the blame Hostess failure on a multiple issues, but CEO pay is a class warfare induced Red Herring that deflects from the real problems at Hostess. Why doesn't obama jump in and buy them like he did GM? aren't 18,000 jobs worth it?
And Obama got blamed for it ... besides .. GM was a viable company with a product line that had a value ...
Hostess had a worthless product line aka high calorie high fat junk for the most part, and since the product line is decided by management, that is where the failure is. Simple - yea it runs counter to your ethos, but that is as simple as it gets.
Cool.
