[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 703028, member: 927"] Red: That's an argument I have never heard before, and I'm not sure I understand.... If FedEx employees joined a union (the RLA does not make them unionized), why would they lose jobs? The FedEx argument I guess, is that if their employees joined a union, they would have to pay higher wages and benefit. If they paid higher wages and benefits FedEx would need to charge more, right? (or reduce profit and share price) Therefore they may lose some customers, probably to UPS. In this scenario, if FedEx shrunk union employees, UPS would grow union employees. Why is this not the union way? I really would like to understand your perspective on this one. P-Man [/QUOTE]
