USPS signs agreement with DOGE after moving to cut 10,000 workers: 'Broken business model'

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Plastic bags are banned but junk mail okay.
The government has no right to profit from junk mail sent to my home.
I have a right to determine what is sent to my home

But the government steals those rights

I have to pay taxes to the government which uses those taxes to deliver junk mail they profit from that I then have to pay to throw away.

Yet, plastic bags are bad? Irony. The government dictating what I can and can't have. Dictating how I must spend money.

Actually, you don't. Have a nice day!

Yep, I don't have a right to not receive advertisements from corporations delivered by the federal government that I must pay to throw out.

 

[elektra]

Perhaps there should be a surcharge for advertising, like a dollar each, vice the hundreds per dollar they probably charge now.

Or maybe they could come to my house, take their garbage and throw it away at their expense

You are so full of shit. Take a laxative and maybe your posts won't be so shitty in the morning.

United States post office is delivering junk mail by and large because they have to or they’re broke. End of discussion you should not be employed. Oregon banned plastic bags years ago stop with your bullshit!

USPS signs agreement with DOGE after moving to cut 10,000 workers: 'Broken business model'

The U.S. Postal Service has signed an agreement with Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency to cut 10,000 workers and billions of dollars from the US Postal Service budget.

www.yahoo.com

U.S. Postmaster General Louis DeJoy informed members of Congress on Thursday he has signed an agreement with the General Services Administration and Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency to right-size the Postal Service budget.

The Postal Service moved in January to cut 10,000 jobs cuts through an early retirement offer to eligible workers.

In a letter to Congress, DeJoy lamented that the Postal Service has a "broken business model that was not financially sustainable without critically necessary and core change."

WOW! How is it even possible for the post office to lose 200 billion (with a B) dollars?

What, are they including complementary hundred-dollar bills with every delivery?

Small wonder, the hubs look like the UN came by had an explosive bowel movement of workers.

There is nothing wrong with the business model. The USPS has been forced by Congress to pay for all of their pension obligations up front. No business or government entity is forced to do that. Without this, they did make a profit.

Now they’ll even turn more of a profit now that they are offloading 10k leeches that are getting ready to be kicked to curb.

Gee Mr knownothing, because you don't experience it, it does not exist.

Yes, you are closed minded and don't see anything beyond your what you reach. In your small little world

Yes, you are use to shoving stuff up yours so you suggest others do the same

You don't disprove a thing in my posts

I should not be forced to receive and throw out junk mail, at my expense.
