I read somewhere they purchased new machines ($$$) to streamline distribution of magazines but they never used them, instead its done by hand by union workers.

My Father worked for a company and he wrote the bid about 16 years ago that would have streamlined all mail using smart heuristics, new sensors and computer controlled distribution but would have lessened the need for employees. Congress was willing to spend the money but the leadership and the unions torpedoed it and as you can see we are in a worse mess.

Damned right!! After all, machines don’t donate to the democrat party.
