A newly released memo from the banking giant Wells Fargo outlines a predatory scheme to dismantle the USPS: sell off profitable parts, slash union jobs, and raise prices by up to 140 percent.
It’s a public fucking service. It’s not supposed to be profitable. It was never intended to be profitable. Asking “but where’s the profit” about fucking EVERYTHING is literally the cancer that’s killing our civilization in general, and this country in particular.
And that’s what they mean when they want to run the government like a business… It’s been clear from the current administration that their goal is to get rid of everything that doesn’t bring in profit… Because the numbers must go up… It’s so frustrating… This is just another level… The business’s that lobby to make everything shitty are now trying to cut out the middle man I guess…
I agree. I am was just talking about a hypothetical privatized postal co. It is a service. Imagine how many people would send Christmas cards at $10 a card.
The vast, VAST majority of physical letters that are sent out these days are mass mailers from corporations or hard copy documents. I’d be willing to bet that the average zoomer has probably sent less than 10 actual letters in their life.
