“The Postal Service, specifically in urban areas, is a basically a job program for ‘people of color’. Congress will NOT let the Postal Dept fail out of fear of riots.
Too many ‘people of color’ are in an imaginary middle class because of government jobs like the Post Office.
No government jobs, ‘people of color’ become restless.”

Now I don’t live in an “urban area,” and yet virtually all of the USPS “employees” are “people of color,” who collectively have the IQ of an amoeba and to make up for that deficiency, are rude and hateful to the postal customers. The FedEX and UPS drivers are here several times a week and they are always polite and efficient. Not so for the mail service. Like others have posted, spin it off, and let it run as a truly a “private corporation.” All this happy horse crap about too much money going to the government to cover future pension benefits is a ruse. The USPS is a dying business as it is set up, since it’s there primarily for the benefit of it’s workforce. An example of a welfare program masquerading as a business.

Too bad you don’t have my mail carrier. He’s dependable, friendly and goes out of his way to accommodate his customers. Whatever one might think of the level of pay, postal work is generally not easy, particularly on the evening and midnight shifts when most of the mail is moved- those parcels and sacks of mail do not sprout wings and move themselves. Most postal employees have to work up a good sweat to receive their “welfare”.

Hmm ~ how utterly ignant of you. The $5.3 billion surcharge is one of several factors ~ true enough ~ as is the Great Obama Recession and its effect on the business environment and advertising (the greater part of the mail these days).

I have no doubt you have trouble with your letter carrier. GIve me your address and I know just the people to call to make sure you no longer get delivery service so you won't be bothered.

I know some other people to call who might be interested in your peculiar racial theories too.
