They owe the government money? So, they want the government to give them money? So they can pay the government what they owe the government?
We are so screwed.
Yep. Notice I edited out the laughable line, “The USPS does not get taxpayer funds.”
“They owe the government money? So, they want the government to give them money? So they can pay the government what they owe the government?”
It worked for GM! /sarc
Isn’t this what the administration is doing? Borrowing money from China so they can pay the interest they owe China?
NOBODY DOES THIS ANYWHERE ELSE.
It's just another way to have the Postal Service subsidize the rest of the government.

People like my brother is the problem. The mail carriers had 2 blocks added on due to less mail and they all did a slowdown to save the job!
When my friend was a mail carrier he’d be done by 11:30 but paid a full day. And that was a few years ago when there was mail!
” We are so screwed. “

we didn’t need to cut now. (and we did our best with 1/3).

so what if the USPO loses 3 billion every 3 months.
so what if Fannie and Freddie lose billions each quarter
(with debt not even included in the Federal books!)
the important thing, is we have begun the dialogue about debt, and we will win in 2012, and fix it all in 2013...
What are you some kind of right wing Tea Party nut?
They owe the government money? So, they want the government to give them money? So they can pay the government what they owe the government?
Why not? it worked for GM.
