Hartmann: Destroying the Postal Service - another Manufactured Crisis
Hey Postal Workers, ...
Hey Postal Workers, I understand the postal service is falling apart. But your incomes don't have to, I have a way for you to have that "income security blanket" so that you wil have a Plan B and you will still have money coming in even when you're not doing anything at all. Email me at CHARNELLE2@msn.com to find out more information.
If you eliminate ...
If you eliminate big government then Corporatism is just a laughing matter. Where are those corporatists going to grab onto if there isn't a big government? But that is a problem government has gotten increasingly big. By keeping regulations small and government small. You will have many more small businesses (mom and pop shops) That can easily serve their local communities.
"The post office ...
"The post office can deliver them cheaper than they can." Where is your evidence? They do appear to be cheaper. But they aren't. It isn't a magical thing coming out of government to be able to produce things cheaper. In fact government does the exact opposite. You are only seeing portion of that fee from the post office. The rest comes out of your taxes that you do not see.
Greed? You Big ...
Greed? You Big government pushing assholes are the most Greedy of the bunch! Look at all of the public sector areas like rapid transit. IT IS LOOSING MONEY even from being highly profitable with fares. Why? Because all of it gets thrown at public sector unions while they sponsor their political campaigners. Rinse repeat till it' all gone. You should have known how to not of taken things to far.
I would argue that ...
I would argue that the military is up as well on the auction block. This is the transition into a world without borders or allegiances. The old republic is dead and corporatism is the new system rising. The world is finally worshipping the god it's always wanted...MONEY.
The US was bought ...
The US was bought by Wall street. Goldman Sachs and the likes have bought the US corporation from the people with the help of corrupt leadership. Just like Gordon Gekko in the film Wall street they are now chopping the US into pieces and selling it to the highest bidder. The privatizing of america has been going on for a while but now they are starting to chop up the very things that made america a free country. US Post is the peoples communication and it must go. Your reps in DC gave the OK.
Lol, go ahead, shut ...
Lol, go ahead, shut down the post office. When you are paying $50.00 to send a Christmas card to your grandma, remember how bad you had it. Compare the cost now, with a public option. Then imagine what it will be like with only private sector options. The post office gets zero tax payer money. A stamp goes up a penny, everyone flips out. A gallon of gas goes up a penny, nobody even notices.

That is one thing I ...
That is one thing I do not understand is how people blame the internet for the problems of the USPS. It might hurt with regular mail (paying bills, sending letters, est.). But with on-line shopping, shouldn't the internet help the USPS make money with sending packages?
Everything is not ...
Everything is not as it seems. Watch The Postal Wife and share. thanks.
US Constitution, ...
US Constitution, Article 1, Section 8, Clause 7 "To establish Post Offices and Post Roads." Thats right, an attack on the United States Postal Service is UNCONSTITUTIONAL. End of debate.
What they don't ...
What they don't tell you is that the "Right Wing Assault" H.R. 6407: Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act from 2006 was mostly cosponsored by Democrats.
What do you mean ...
What do you mean can't compete? They compete quite well. If I had a choice between paying $12 to USPS deliver a package that arrived in 4 days, or paying $30+ to have it delivered in 3 days by Fedex, I'm likely going with the former. As for central planning, again you need to read some more. The internet you're using right now is due to government "central planning". Certainly not to "laissez-fair capitalism". Let me guess, "Young Republicans", right?
If the government ...
If the government can't compete with the private sector then why would anyone want to throw good money after bad to keep a less efficient system functioning that actually hinders and takes business away from the better one? How did Americans get to the fascist, and stupid mentality that the government and central planning is better than free markets, competition, and laissez-faire capitalism even in the face of hard plain undeniable and overwhelming evidence? How does the world fall for it?
Attacked by whom? ...
Attacked by whom? Name some names and provide evidence. Considering you aren't even mature enough to use "bad words" I think it is safe to assume that you don't actually know and just follow along with what you hear. lol Prove me wrong... What harm do you think you will do if you say fuck, or assholes, or bitches, or whatever word you can think of. Its your own irrational prejudice that gives them power!
postal service is ...
postal service is not first class, 30 years I have been there, they call overtime every day for 30 years, unnessary overtime, many many lazy employees and trouble makers overtime ripoff repent
~^~^~^~In 2006 ...
~^~^~^~In 2006 REPUBLICANS mandated that the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) begin a 10 yearr process of pre-paying all health & retirement benefits for all employees it may hire up to 75 years from now! THE GOAL: To create the ILLUSION that USPS, a NON tax payer funded profit making agency, is on the verge of FINANCIAL COLLAPSE! REPUBLICANS want toBREAK THE POSTAL UNION, lay off 125,000 AMERICANS & PRIVATIZE USPS . REPUBLICAN RACKETEERING & GREED ARE DESTROYING AMERICA! ! ~ ^^~^
Why UPS and Fedex ...
Why UPS and Fedex are contributing heavily to the republicans? Because they want the puppet masters (g.o.p leaders) to shut down the postal system so that the private carriers like Fedex and UPS can boost their business. The republicans started this mess. You tell them to fix it.
