[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1119441, member: 12508"] Ask Sarah Palin about basketball players and big..uh...feet. Back to Economics, OK? Ground is cheap because they pay very low wages for the type of work performed....that's it. Code82 has a valid point regarding freight that is within the overnight zone for trucks, but he misses the larger point about Ground, and that goes back to the low wages/no benefits business model. Take away the low wages, make them employees, and a lot of that freight goes back to Express because of better service, less damage, and a better customer experience. The only reason people even consider Ground is because it is [B]cheap.[/B] [/QUOTE]
