Rural postal workers don’t just deliver mail. They put out fires, help elderly people who’ve fallen, and ensure veterans receive medication during storms. Trump’s proposed USPS privatization threatens these care networks in areas already lacking services.
It’s going to be like comcast/amazon/prison system running our mail system. The republicans have been trying to bankrupt our postal service for decades. The way these headlines are phrased, like it’s inevitable, isn’t a good sign.
They just finished the coup degrace in England with their postal service. Probably funded by the same folks and groups. Standard approach.
I hadn’t heard anything about that. Are they not covering it in your news or am I not using any good sources?
I was in the UK in December as it happened and happened to watch the news. Made me realize how coordinated and similar the efforts and focus of the oligarchy is.
During trump’s first term, there was a banking thing that came up. I can’t find it in any of my bookmarks. Basically, there is an organization in the UK that sets the bank rates for the US and them, maybe more. I can’t remember all of the details, but it was four letters and I think started with a B? It made me realize that we never really came out from under the crown. He who controls the money, controls everything. Trump is testing that, trying to give it to russia.
You may be speaking about LIBOR, I believe that’s relevant internationally though mostly locally? If not that, Exchange rates and currency manipulation is alive and thriving.
Yep, LIBOR is it! I found that super fascinating. The things they don’t tell you in normal schooling. I bet the ivy league high school prep schools knew about Libor.
I guess it’s under a different name now so us plebs can’t see what’s going on:
The 1 month, 3 month, 6 month, and 12 month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) is its replacement.[7][8][9] In July 2023, the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) said four unnamed dollar-denominated alternatives to LIBOR, known as “credit-sensitive rates”, had “varying degrees of vulnerability” that might appear during times of market stress
Hmmm to the bold. I bet they’re in the UK.
Not that it matters, but don’t we need a constitutional amendment to be able to privatize it?
The constitution only grants power to the congress to “establish post offices and post roads” therefore, the congress could un-establish it without any admendment.
Only if the Constitution is still relevant.
Bingo.
Whoever “buys” our National services needs to forfeit them back when the nation finally stabilizes. We owe nothing to those complicit in robbery.
