or are you going to just wait until the capitalist have their hand in your pocket for every need in life? No wonder they laugh all the way to the bank...they own your reps...follow the money...take Amazon's recent grab for the public's mail as a way of reducing their expenses to pay their "owners' more profit while you pay in lack of service's. Sometimes I wonder just how stupid the general public can be
Our Tacoma News Tribune just told subscribers that they will get their newspapers in the mail...putting that expense on the tax payer while they profit..expect more business enitities will try to do this..why should we the taxpayer pay for Amazon's delivery expenses? Talk about welfare for the well off! If you are upset about welfare how about going after the really big taxpayer welfare expense for the businesses or are the poor and the average citizen easier to resent? If you've got a brain, think!!!
