[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 505794, member: 927"] First, you third point is not accurate as far as I know. I think in 1996, the same change to the labor rules was proposed and failed. Its back again. I'm not aware that the current administration is opposed to it. It passed the transportation committee. I don't think it passed the committee last time. Second, you said "There is competitive advantage/disadvatage in every industry." The rules for those in the same industry should be the same. How do you justify two companies in the same industry under different labor rules? Both companies do the same thing today. One started as express only, an one started as ground only. Why is the origin of the two companies relevent to today's labor rules? Finally, you second point is a good one. Just because the labor change makes it easier to organize, doesn't mean that they will. You argue that the employees have nothing to gain. Okay, then why does FedEx fight the legislation? It should be irrelevant as thinking employees make up their own mind. P-Man [/QUOTE]
