[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 623842, member: 12508"] Let me add that simply calling an employee an "independent contractor" doesn't make it so, although FedEx would like to think it does. It was a scam when it was RPS and it's still a scam. How many billions has FedEx saved while simultaneously gaining a large part of the UPS market share by running this con? The state AG's see a cash cow here because the scheme has allowed FedEx to illegally benefit from not paying millions in taxes. In a down economy, where sales tax, gas tax, and other revenue streams have dried-up, what makes anyone think that the states won't pursue this until they get their hands on some of Fred's money. And since he didn't earn it honestly, they are entitled to receive the taxes Fred didn't have to pay. If he'd been an honest businessman from the get-go, he'd have nothing to worry about. But that's not exactly Smith's forte', is it? [/QUOTE]
