You want to "convert" money that intially came into the hands of the government as POSTAGE into General Revenue Funds.

That violates a couple of legal standards in the Constitution regarding imposts, taxes, duties, etc.

It is fundamentally WRONG to just plain steal.

The money was computed as being needed to pay for postal employee retirements ~ that's where the money should go ~ to postal employee retirements.

IT WAS NEVER TAX MONEY. It should not be wasted on the tom foolish cr*p planned by NancyPelosi and her running dog lackeys. My money is much better off in my pocket than in the foreign bank accounts of corrupt Democrats.

And why are you Leftwingtards doing on a thread dedicated to honesty, integrity and the utility of user fees in purchasing government services. This is ordinarily a hot bed of Ronaldus Magnus' sympathies ~ not a pro-tax bone in our bodies.

wow. I’m not looking to start a flame thread with you, as I shy away from discussions with intellectual giants who also have phenomenal diplomatic skills. Your genius and mastery of my position have allowed you to put words in my mouth and then call me a leftwingtard. Good for you.

In my post I said “as it appears”, not “I know that”.
Now, that assumption I made ‘appears’ to be wrong, so okay, I’ll get over it, and you should too.

In my post I continued, supposing another scenario, where I also said, “however, if it were”. This makes it obvious that I’m admitting that I’m not sure how the money was obtained, and was giving my thoughts on how it should be handled for a second assumed scenario.

And given that the USPS budget comes up short quite often, where does THAT difference come from?

This is a forum. People post facts, assumptions and opinions. Please note the difference in the future. Also, note my tagline.

Have a nice day.

PS to the FR moderators: If I have overstepped here I apologize. But I do feel I have just cause to respond somewhat accordingly to muawiyah’s post.

Why is it that we're supposed to believe that the pension calculations made by the Inspector General (an employee of the Postal Service) are more accurate than those made by the Office of Personnel Management?
