FedEx Enters Same-Day Delivery War

Amazing stuff! It is getting crowded! 😊 How many delivery trucks will show up daily in your neighborhood?

Competition is good, more competition is better!

"FedEx Enters Same-Day Delivery War
FedEx is jumping into the same-day delivery war, launching a service to rival Amazon and Walmart as major retailers battle over who can get packages to doorsteps fastest.

The new FedEx SameDay Local, built with last-mile partner OneRail, will offer shoppers two-hour or end-of-day delivery options directly at checkout. OneRail’s platform covers nearly 99% of the country and plugs into retailers’ existing store networks without requiring new infrastructure.

The move comes a week after Amazon rolled out one-hour and three-hour shipping windows in hundreds of U.S. cities, while Walmart already offers three-hour delivery reaching 95% of U.S. households.

FedEx says it’s betting on demand: 80% of customers surveyed want same-day shipping, and nearly half say they’re more likely to complete a purchase if it’s included."

Big Government Charges FedEx With Illegal Drug Deliveries

Posted: 7/19/2014


Trigger


The wall street journal just reported “FedEx Is Charged in Illegal Drug Deliveries”.


Selected quotes (emphasis added):
Among the charges included in the indictment are conspiracy to distribute controlled substances, conspiracy to distribute misbranded drugs, distribution of controlled substances and misbranding drugs.
If found guilty, FedEx faces a potential fine of at least $1.6 billion, along with restitution and forfeiture of profits, according to a statement from the U.S. attorney’s office in the Northern District of California.


A Preposterous Charge?


Quite Likely! It is yet another example of the deep seated business enmity of the Obama administration! We have to wait another 2 years until this President is out of the office. Why does he not resign to save his legacy as a disaster president!


This looks like another Obama shakedown of a large U.S. business!


Does Big Government scrutinize the U.S. Postal Service in the same manner?


I fully agree with FedEx, the company is not in the business of law enforcement! I am glad that the company declared it intends to vigorously defend itself! I will keep my fingers crossed!


The Case Raises Many Issues


  1. Way too much Big Government control over medication and patient’s choices of drugs! The FDA should be first shut down and completely redone!
  2. Big Government requires way too many drugs to be available on doctor’s prescription! Let patient’s choose!
  3. Big Government targets online pharmacies even though they are the future!

Do You Wonder Why The Great Recession Goes On?

With a business enemy like President Obama in the White House you should not!
