[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1120317, member: 12508"] Giggle...you are Fred's useful idiot. What kind of jobs does Ground create? Crap jobs. You know, the ones Southern governors and Libertarians point to with pride when they say that they have "created" jobs in their states. You, and your fellow contractors/ISPs are the front men for this scam, included so Fred can point at you and call you a "business partner" and an example of entrepreneurship and private Ground enterprise. You are the means by which he justifies a taxpayer-subsidized workforce and gets to call himself a "job creator". In other words, you are just props for what is really going on behind the scenes, which is Fredex Ground, not bbsam Ground or northbound Ground. Ground jobs are a route to nowhere, because they don't pay enough to allow employees to enter the middle class or rise into entrepreneurship. How many of your drivers could actually afford to buy into Ground on what you pay them? None. Zero. [B]I [/B]pay for their medical and food stamps out of my diminished check, as do all of the rest of us struggling to stay in the middle class. You, and your employees are an albatross around our necks, just so poor old Fred can manage to eke-out a few billion in profits every year. Boo hoo!! Like others, I can hardly wait for the day when the courts call BS on Fred and this charade. You know, all Mr. Smith did was slavishly copy the UPS Ground system, except for one tiny detail....the workers. He gets to pay them, what, $25,000 or so per year when UPS pays $75,000 [B]plus [/B]benefits? And where does all that extra profit go (except for a bit for you)? Right into Fredward's fat wallet. So, please go on deluding yourself that you are creating jobs, an example of the free market, and an ethical employer...you are none of that. You are, however, a stooge for Frederick W. Smith, and a damned good one. [/QUOTE]
