I tend to disagree because I was in the courier business for a very long time.When there is a strike the slack is picked up by other companies and these other companies don't usually make enough of a profit during a strike period to expand to the point of monopolizing the courier business.Also, people should keep in mind that those people working at UPS are under a lot of pressure and they do deserve to make more money and have more benefits. I've been too involved in that line of work to not know how they feel. Perhaps the scabs will realize that also.
