You know what it means when the flag at the Post Office is at half-mast?


They're hiring.

>With mailboxes equipped with scales it would be simple enough to weigh each delivery of mail and simultaneously transmit that information to the USPS to then forward to the IRS in the form of a 1099 form to be added to each mailbox holder’s account as imputed income for the year in which the mail was received.<

Myself, I would refuse the delivery of all junk mail and what would you say if your neighbor who didn’t like you sent his used cat litter to you? Would you mind paying to receive it?

The last thing I want is for the national treasury to receive any more funds. They spend enough on pork as it is.

But none of the senders shot the letter carrier. It was a potential recipient, who'd paid nothing, who made the complaint by kneecapping the carrier.

That is hardly equitible.

It's just another case of an ungrateful welfare recipient blaming the system for his own plight.

We have trained our welfare recipients to expect nothing but the best from us taxpayers. At the least we should buy him a new box of ammo.

Good, probably cost the bank a buck to do the transaction.
