[QUOTE="WhatCrass, post: 805106, member: 32493"] This is how FedEx saves money; pay their workers low enough so they qualify for government aide. Wal-Mart pulls this same crap too. When workers can qualify for food stamps, section 8 housing, college Pell grants, Wic, etc. it takes the burden of giving a higher wage to FedEx workers and gives Freddie a bigger profit. The Teamsters and the FedEx drivers can change all that by forming a union. Granted, under the pro-capitalist RLA law, it's going to be very hard. But the conditions are ripe for organizing. And I'm sure we'll start seeing FedEx offer more small concessions to the workers to try to prevent that from happening. [/QUOTE]
