[QUOTE="quad decade guy, post: 5118601, member: 77939"] Interesting... We will go out of business because of cost. True. Now, what will that look like or be like.... Have you considered that Amazon or whoever would just let a complete shipping network evaporate? Would probably take the choice parts and sell off the rest...liquidate in Bankruptcy...etc. Buy a Hub here, there etc.... If Amazon is to become the biggest.....they are going to need to expand. And sometimes our hubs are nearby to theirs....airports etc.....again a complete shipping network. Vehicles...I'm not sure....Amazon does well with contractors.....why would they change that? Now, what to do? Well, we have hotheads right here on BC wanting to strike..... Vaccines to PVD's. How do you reduce costs in a Company that won't even fix a toilet? Sears went out of business because they didn't have a product anyone wanted... UPS has a product that has seen fantastic growth. Yet, I can't imagine anyone wanting to take a cut in pay.... Even down to Fed Ex wages.......or give up benefits. Lose our jobs and all that means or compromise? [/QUOTE]
