[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 5568731, member: 12508"] Continuing to defend the indefensible. After the screwing they gave you (and all of us) over the years, FedEx deserves nothing but criticism for being the exploitative employer they are for trying to foist this whole scheme upon regulators as "nothing has changed". Your small pension could have been $5-6K per month with a union. We all subsidized the Ground expansion through low wages, infrequent raises, a lousy pension which is now no pension at all, and poor benefits with high co-pays and deductibles. As far as a war with China goes, do you realize that the US is China's biggest trading partner? We all witnessed what happened to OUR economy when Covid shutdown the CHINESE economy, as in massively disrupted supply chains, a lack of vital automotive and industrial parts and no Tupperware at the local WalMart, who is the prime example of dependence upon Chinese manufacturing and also offshoring of formerly American jobs, mostly to China. The Right doesn't understand global economies, global supply chains or Republican-owned companies outsourcing the jobs they now whine about constantly. No, China doesn't want a war with it's biggest customer, and Fred wants you to believe every lie he has fed to employees over the years. Some are still buying it. Sad. [/QUOTE]
