@dave1459 WE have Unions and management in Our Post office in Ireland and we can send a letter to anywhere in Europe (500 million people) in 2 days. It always amuses me when Public services in the US are underfunded and even Defunded by Republicans and then they complain about them not working properly. It's a political ideology that makes this happen. It's republicans who believe that the FREE market will solve everything and nothing should be done by government if it can be avoided.

@dave1459 Democrats controlled the houses for a long time until the Eighties. This is when thing's turned bad for America. Clinton had to deal with a hostile Congress. So did Obama for 6 out of eight years

@dave1459 Before Private Corporations sold Health Insurance the US had BLUE CROSS private health care and it was NON Profit. Then the FREE market got involved and multiple Private companies got involved from the 1950's on. So my point was not about Private health care, it was that the FREE market that destroyed health care in the US with Higher costs and worse patient outcomes that other countries that have Proper Public health Systems like Canada and France and Ireland etc etc

Close the US post office and watch what happens to the cost of sending a letter. You will regret doing that one, I can Promise you that

@dave1459 "Who the hell writes letters any more unless it is to the Editor?"
What do you care. It still makes a profit so let other people write their letters. And don't you care about people getting cheques in the post or is it just all about you?

Again??

Montana was a test case...they got stopped from removing them, so this must be plan B

Bolt cutters about $20 at Harbor Freight.....

@AnneWimsey True. But if no one is going to the mailbox to empty it, mail would just sit there interminably.

I can't wait until 2021 when a lot of tRumps asshole enablers go to jail. All of this illegal bullshit right out in the open. Makes it easy for the prosecutors
