Where does this "bullocks" come from? Where did the antipathy, if not hatred, for the sole agency specifically mentioned in the constitution originate?? Did some group have to wait in line during Christmas to pick up their presents? It does appear to be part of the corrosive privatization-of-all-public services trend which directly or indirectly can tear a country apart (especially one "of, by, and for the people"). And unfortunately, the meme appears to have staying power and might have some self-fulfilling aspects to it. Maybe if we spoke better of public/government employees in general (rather than just to the military, which itself is often not much more than self-interested lip-service), they'd perform even better than they currently do.TomT said:USPS is a terrible and terribly run organization
but at least you're aware of this, so thank you for "being fair"!!TomT said:but to be fair, one of the reasons why they are losing money is the Post Office has been legally required to pre-fund health benefits for future retirees at a cost of around $5.5 billion a year since 2006 by congress. Congress did this, in part, to reduce the apparent federal deficit...
