While establishing Post Offices and Post Roads is a power specifically delegated to the federal government in the U.S. Constitution, it does not mean that the federal government is required to exercise that power. Nor does it mean that the federal couldn’t delegate that power. While I am not convinced that privatizing the postal service is in the best interests of the U.S., I think we all can agree that there has to be a better way. Perhaps privatization would relieve the post office expensive and onerous unions and expenses to allow them to be solvent.
(Reuters) -U.S. President-elect Donald Trump has in recent weeks expressed a keen interest in privatizing the U.S. Postal Service, the Washington Post reported on Saturday, citing three people with knowledge of the matter.
The U.S. Postal Service, which has lost more than $100 billion since 2007, reported a net loss of $9.5 billion for its fiscal year ending Sept. 30, $3 billion more than last year, largely due to a year-over-year increase in non-cash workers’ compensation expense.
Nutjib conspiracy theorists on the left are still popping brain aneurysms about DeJoy… First it was trying to destroy the post office, then it was to steal the 2020 election by removing sorting machines. Now they have some more smooth brain fodder to scream about to no one listening.
