The post office is NOT a for-profit business

[vlyons]

Although Republicans think it should be run like a for-profit business. The post office was never conceived to be a for-profit business. It is a SERVICE. It is the only agency mentioned in the constitution, Article I. Ben Franklin was the first postmaster general.

We don't run the army or the navy as for-profit businesses. We don't run the FDA, FBI, OSHA, or national parks as for-profit businesses. So the next time, someone says the post office loses money and should be run like a for-profit business, please correct them that it is a SERVICE. That's why it's called the United States Postal SERVICE!

1. It's a strong talking point for Democrats, in my opinion.

If they would use it?

3. Neither is the WH

Repubes see only opportunities to grift.

4. There is an attempt to make the national parks for-profit

Which is absolutely insane...capitalism run amok.
