Did I here right, another fine government run institution the U.S. post office needing some of our help?
Let's see medicaid, Post Office, Social Security, Auto Industry-pay to build them and sell them, and four hundred dollar hammers for the military, is there anything that the government touches that does not balloon out of sight? Why is the post office not delivering in hybrids or electric vehicles by now? If Uncle Sam would put the 878 billion dollars into the hands of the people, maybe we would be able to afford to send some mail and they would not need a bail out.
Hoopla... most likely yes.
Other companies with the same services as the post office do not get to dip into our pockets. There are no excuses. A private business would change with the times or cese to exist.
