Federal Express: Federal Express Corporation
built 645 days ago
In 1971, Fred Smith of Memphis created the Federal Express Corporation, an overnight air freight delivery system. A fleet of airplanes would fly packages from across the nation each evening to a center in Memphis, where the packages would be unloaded, sorted, and re-loaded onto other planes for travel to the final destination. In 1981, the corporation achieved a revenue of one billion dollars.

Other airlines have reason to fear that Federal Express will gain an upper hand over them. The way to remove such suspicions is obvious. Enacting legislation banning open-ended contributions by individuals and corporations is the only way to restore integrity to the process in Washington.
