[...] Meanwhile, common carrier DHL just announced massive job cuts. Source. This follows the announcement from the U.S. Postal Service that it's considering eliminating 40,000 of its postal workers. Source Back in 2005, I asked Mike Ruppert "are there any signs we should look for that the fundamental wheels of commerce (buying, shipping, selling) are near the shut down point?" He said to look for the common carriers (UPS, Fed-Ex, DHL) to have major problems sustaining operations. That day has now arrived for DHL and is only a few weeks away for General Motors and much of the auto industry.

Re: World (none / 0)

This appears to be a standard case of poor business practices. Expect to see much of this exposed. DHL is a third-wheel in the US where anyone who needs an alternative to UPS or FedEX uses the USPS. DHL? what for?
