Deteriorating Postal Service

[Meddle]

In a nutshell, one of Donny's Minions is deliberately slowing service in an effort to thwart mail in voting.



Or so the theories go.

Louis DeJoy has TREMENDOUS financial conflicts of interest and stands to make millions by privatizing and outsourcing core USPS business functions to companies he has a stake in. This is full-on Washington Swamp corruption, but of course the Usual Suspects here defend it, as they are programmed to do.

Ironically what goes completely ignored by these very same people is the demographic that would be most hurt by privatizing the Post Office: Rural America [[i.e. Trump's base). The Postal Service takes a huge financial loss by operating first-class mail service in remote, sparsely-populated areas, which they are required to do by law and cannot charge more just because it costs more to pickup and deliver first-class mail out in the Boonies.

In the event the Postal Service goes belly-up, does anyone here actually think that UPS and FedEx are going to deliver your stimulus check to you in the middle of BFE for cost of a first class stamp? Nope. But it's "cut off your nose to spite your face" with this crowd.

Louis DeJoy has TREMENDOUS financial conflicts of interest and ....

He also has zero experience in the post office — something highly unusual for that position.

But it's "cut off your nose to spite your face" with this crowd.

And it's political B/S and name calling with the rest of the crowd. They don't have internet, online banking, or direct deposit in BFE? It's less expensive teaching Cletus to use the internet and debit card than it is to keep spending billions because "but we've always done it that way..."
