We don’t need the government delivering 500,000 tons of junk mail every single day!

The government postal workers need to learn a skill and get real jobs..

The private sector is able to deliver 500,000 tons of junk mail daily if necessary.

It’s amazing how many on free republic are really big gov supporters masquerading as conservatives.

It’s getting to the point where coming here is like going to a government union meeting, filled with pro-government lobbyist.

The Postal Service reported a loss of $3.8 billion last year

In the real world, a private sector company would go belly up, as it should!

Hello???

What part of ‘They do not get government money” do you not understand?

I can do this all day.

$3.8 billion is about 4.5% of their annual revenues.

I have run a similar deficit percentage wise in my budget before. I didn’t go belly up.

Fun things to do....

Since your corrupt bloated government post office forces 500,000 tons of junk mail on Americans daily, take all that garbage they stuff in your box, jam 2 pounds of that junk mail into the first post paid envelope ya see, and leave for the over paid government letter picker upper...

Sending all that garbage back to where it came can be fun!!
