Yellow | YRC rebuffed in move to acquire ABF, ABF's parent says

The process was invented by JP Morgan, it's called Morganization.
JP Morgan started after the Civil War, when he began investing in railroads and soon ruled the transportation empire. He didn't build roads; he took over or consolidated, under his control, railroads that had run into financial trouble,
It's no coincidence all the titles and property deeds show JP Morgan Chase as the lien holder, they are still around and still looking to make big $$ the old fashion way by consolidating industries in trouble selling off the excess and making bug interest $$ from the resulting corporation.
 
what id like to know is . why if the investors wanted this would they not just buy abf themselves ,then call in the markers on yrc and rule freight and how could they make welsh make this offer.how could they MAKE us have more debt ?

More Debit = more interest payments to them, after all that is how they make their money.
 
It's simple when you are this deeply in debit to the banks you do as they ask or they have you removed and put someone else in your seat who will.
From a business standpoint consolation and reducing capacity is how you raise pricing just look at wireless phone companies, auto dealerships and other big business it's not good for the workers be it labor or middle/lower management as there will be less of both. If you have the backing to pull it off it's a solid way to raise profits.

Linehaul violation?
ABF is moving our trailers. Empty or Full?

A letter was posted by managment in our drivers room, and everyone is up in arms.. the general consensus is, stupid idea, and how about giving us back our 15%, pension, and vacation time back, before trying something stupid like this... Besides, didn't YRC make an agreement that they could not try to buy any more companies, before these concessions were given back???

To answer your question, no. Regarding the rest of your post, YRCF or YRCW for that matter is not EARNING the money. They would borrow it. Those who would loan YRCW that money ARE NOT going to loan money for YRCF to give it to us! They are looking at RETURN ON INVESTMENT and from a business perspective it is a VERY attractive transaction. They don't care whether you are happy about it or not.
