[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 805684, member: 12508"] Here's a question we should all consider. Why would Fred want to do any of this? We are talking WalMart here, and FredMart or WalExpress doesn't ever part with a penny it doesn't have to...especially when it comes to employees. The only way that Fred buys-out Ground contractors would be in the event the ISP model is found to be illegal. Maybe Fred sees the writing on the wall, and wants the ability to hold Ground to Express standards (speak English, deliver the pkg to the actual address, etc), but it seems far-fetched that he'd give up the huge competitive advantage Ground has over UPS in terms of operating costs.
