Economics-Budget-Social Safety Net-088_LABOR-02, Post Office, GOP & Rep. Daryl Issa (R-*CA) Killing The
Post Office
It’s a thrifty (Not-for-Profit) Government Service established by the U.S. Constitution; Postage Fees pay for the entire operations budget (except after 2006 Republican Poison Pill Act designed to kill the Postal Service and take away 1 million+ fairly negotiated Union government jobs …a high portion held by Military Veterans);
Much higher cost delivery services UPS & FedEx would benefit from closing thousands of Post Offices; The GOP wants to privatize/“profitize” for FedEx & UPS, who only cover 75% of the Post Offices routes; Both “use the Post Office’ Services” to deliver/cover those remote routes; With the Post Office destroyed by Republicans, rural people will LOOSE mail service on unprofitable routes;
F.Y.I.: A “Poison Pill” Amendment of 2006 Postal Reform Act under POTUS George W. Bush required 75 years of retirement obligations to be set aside in just 10 years (retirement for unborn future employees), and kept service expansion restrictions in place (Expansion of services, to compensate for Internet and Fax Machine competition, would benefit rural and urban U.S. residents); No For-Profit Corporation could survive that Congressional mandate for pre-funding retirement of employees while limiting service expansion;
Venture Capitalists want to buy the U.S. Postal Service, “Steal” the plumped up pension fund, file for bankruptcy, stick the Federal Government Pension fund with paying pensions at a rate of ½, and sell it to the next Venture Capitalist or Hedge Fund to “Break” the Union Contract and professional workforce.
UPS is a Big-Corp campaign donor of Pay-to-Play U.S. Rep. Darrell Issa

U.S. Health costs are “higher” than any other Developed Country. Republicans refuse to tax Corporations who enjoy the lowest tax rate since the early 1970’s. Increasing taxes on Corp’s is endorsed by 85% of the American Public. Reducing Long term U.S. Debt is dependent on getting Health Care costs under control.
