[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 4291275, member: 12508"] It isn't doomsday thinking, it's Fredward 101. If he can save money by utilizing the cheaper Ground network to move some Express product, he will. The problem with mixing the 2 is the whole RLA/Exemption deal. You can't mix the product without threatening the anti-union Kryptonite. R1a will be proven right long-term in my opinion. In today's Trumpistanian world, its isn't out of the question that Fred could work something out that would be approved by a very pro-business, Republican administration. FedEx has been one of the victims of Trump's trade wars, and Fred may need to make some "desperate" moves to keep Express viable. If you remember, uber Republican Smith went to Trump Tower before King Orange took office to plead the case against tariffs and trade wars. Obviously, he didn't get his way, and Express has been slammed. So, what does Dear Leader do to compensate for the loss of international business, which doesn't seem likely to return until Trump is gone? I think he does something drastic domestically. I guess we wait and see. And, yes, Dano and Fred's Myth, this is conjecture and/or discussion of possibilities, not a concrete statement of fact. You two seem to have a problem with debating issues vs. making declarative statements that are iron-clad. Try to get some help with that. [/QUOTE]
