Yesterday, Ohio Lieutenant Gov. Lee Fisher said in an interview that the state wants to enter into "a risk-sharing, collaborative financial partnership" with the company, in place of the UPS deal. Mr. Fisher declined to disclose details of the proposal.
Deutsche Post AG spokesman Silje Skogstad said, "We are not aware of such a proposal."
YHGTBSM !!
So, Ohio, a US state, is going into business with Germany to compete against UPS and FedEx - both US companies??? What the hell kind of arrangement is that?
I wouldn't be too thrilled about paying taxes to Ohio to subsidize a German company if I lived in Ohio!
I think the Ohio Lieutenant Gov. is smoking some good crack to offer that deal!
