[QUOTE="pickup, post: 547870"] If fed ex can threaten to sue ups over a claim in their advertising maybe ups can sue them for having an officially sanctioned(i'll check to see if fed ex is indeed sanctioning it after I post) website that libels ups calling legislation a bailout for ups. On another note,(this relates to another good post that I can't find) , ups is keeping low key on this. Could it be that the votes are already counted and both ups and fed ex know which way it will already go if no extreme pressure is applied to the situation, that is fed ex will lose their exemption. Fed ex employees can write their senators and that will get cancelled out by ups employees calling their senators. This website that fed ex created might be an attempt to engage the general american public to pressure a few senators to vote differently. I guess they figured to connect american disgust with corporate bailouts with ups by calling it a bailout. While I would like to think that people are too smart to fall for this, it has been demonstrated in the past that people are dumb in droves and can and will fall for anything.
