a capitalist business would call up a repair shop immediately and get the job done.

not the socialist usps.

In government operations, capital is spent on wages to buy popularity and votes instead of being reinvested in the business to improve productivity and profitability. You no longer find stamp machines in most post offices. They were never maintained and had to be scrapped.

Oh, the stamp machines hanging on the wall? Those machines were always cr*p. The multicommodity venders work much better.
