[QUOTE="UnconTROLLed, post: 572013, member: 18708"] "[b]FedEx delivers 85 percent of its packages by air.[/b] It is the world’s second largest ‘airline, ‘ and subsequently it is regulated by the RLA as that governs both railroads and airlines. Going back to 1926, the law is designed to keep local strikes in the transportation industry from creating a bottleneck that would in turn cripple the entire nationwide system. Strikes can only be called nationwide and the President has the authority to impose mediation, cooling off periods and the like. [b]UPS delivers 85 percent of its shipments exclusively by truck.[/b] As such it is regulated like every other trucking company and falls under the authority of the NLRA. If regulations on FedEx were changed so that it was government by NLRA a local Teamsters strike in one of their choke points could devastate its nationwide distribution system; and the government could not intervene as it can today." I cannot help but find that irresistable spin funny. ;) [/QUOTE]
