“Aside from the military I don’t think anyone deserves a taxpayer funded retirement”
I agree. The thing is USPS employees do not receive taxpayer funded retirements - they are part employee funded and part of it is the benefits package they were offered when they hired on, which also is not taxpayer funded. There is no golden parachute type of retirement as many seem to believe.
When they keep getting bailed out its tax payer funded.
