What effect did the UPS strike have on the United States?

UPS showed the United Sates how much their corporation meant to our economy. It was the largest strike in the U.S. in over a decade, disrupting the delivery of millions of packages throughout the country every day for more than two weeks. UPS controls 80 percent of all package deliveries in the United States, so there was hardly a community or a business anywhere that was not affected. Ranging from medical supplies for the sick to critical packages for clients, the company put our nation at a hault.
