[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 805960, member: 12508"] Exactly. You could use the same language for [B]any[/B] carrier, be it a railroad, an airline, or a delivery company that happens to have airplanes. I have not "clearly and distinctly explained why Express should be covered by the RLA". You're (as usual) trying to spin something in a direction that is completely opposite of what I said. Absolutely [B]any[/B] carrier could "interrupt commerce". The idea that FedEx alone could cause significant damage to the national economy is ridiculous. You're making my argument for me when you defend Fred S's absolutely, positively, unique and special RLA deal on that basis. As I've said, Fred is a big proponent of the "free market". In a free market, the marketplace is self-correcting, and substitute carriers would take-up the slack, or so say believers in this philosophy. The special RLA deal Fred has is the antithesis of the free market, because it gives FedEx a substantial advantage over the competition. This makes Smith a complete hypocrite, and you a total sycophant for defending him. [/QUOTE]
