Think tank to study privatizing most Postal Service operations

40. The USPS is not "financially ailing", it's been looted by Repugs

...and privatizing it is only being done for the purpose of getting rid of the unions.

It was the GOP who passed legislation requiring the USPS to pre-find its retirement system 75 years in advance. And that's why it's "ailing" and that's the only reason. The GOP did this so they could claim that the USPS is "ailing", inefficient and therefore should be privatized. It's all a goddamned ruse to bust the unions.

Typical Republican criminal bullshit.

Edit: As others have pointed out here, this is just another effing manufactured crisis by the Repubs. The USPS isn't broke and neither is the US. All the money has been looted by Repigs and their corprat friends so the rest of us don't have any. Now, they're after the postal svc., Social Security, and Medicare. GOP wants ALL public funded institutions and programs privatized so their corprat friends and themselves can have all the money in and going to them from tax dollars. They're looting the entire nation right under our noses - selling the whole thing out to corprats here and abroad.
