(If my daddy had loaned me $100 million, I'll bet I'd have a big successful company too by now.) You FedEx pilots who earned your hours and worked your way up to earn a good salary have accomplished more than that bonehead ever would have without his daddy's cash.

The fact is that Fred Smith is one of the most anti-union CEOs in recent memory. He's been stepping on and taking advantage of hardworking, middle class Americans his entire professional life.

His latest antics show his true side and show that he will sink to any level to keep his money that he believes is his birthright. (Why let the little people have any, right Fred?)

He's a whiney crybaby who will have to start playing by the rules and will soon pay his workers a fair wage when they unionize.
