[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 1125538, member: 24302"] I don't think it's ok. But I think characterizing the average Ground driver the way you do is wrong. When I was in South Texas I used to see illegals bent over all day in 98 degree heat with high humidity picking crops. Thank goodness they're willing because to get Americans to do that would put our food bills through the roof. Same goes for Walmart employees. Thank goodness they'll work for that because Walmart groceries cost considerably less than most supermarkets but wouldn't if they paid as much as other supermarkets. No matter where you turn the average citizen benefits from those willing to work for less. I'd like to see all of them get paid well with good benefits but that guarantees that we'll all pay more, and considerably more than the taxes we pay now that provides benefits to them. There are no easy answers. Besides, we talk about how most Express couriers are uninformed about organizing, so why attack uninformed Ground drivers? [/QUOTE]
