Would you stay in business if you kept loosing money every year? I get it’s not a business in the traditional sense but it is, you’re still subsidizing them through your tax dollars.

It’s not even an essantial service like firefighting or policing. There are other established ways to deliver mail of all things in 2025.

I see part of the problem...

People don't understand how our huge government makes life much easier for us. Where we take certain things for granted.

Have never been to or lived in countries that don't have the level of government we do.

In a country where mail delivery isn't federal, and your mail isn't guaranteed or tracked efficiently. Where if you can't afford privatized mail...well you never know what you missed.

The people in the "other " classes that were released earlier than the normal kids are amongst us with no supervision and zero critical thinking skills. You want strangers delivering your W-2 and medical information?

Do you personally know the people who deliver your w2 and medication?

Come on man

It’s an outdated business model, if you support Uber, air bnbs, or any of these gig type businesses then you can’t be in support of the post office as it is today.

Negged for saying stupid shyt. There are parts of the US that would pay out the nose for postal service if USPS was simply trying to turn a profit. Imagine if firefighters were expected to be profitable or shut down.

At least some people understand this.

The post office is not a “business”.

It’s not supposed to make money. It’s supposed to provide a service for the people.

This is like saying firefighting is an “outdated business model”

the post office is subsidized through your tax dollars and isn’t really “free”. Those for profit companies you are just paying up front.

I don’t see how these companies provide less of a service than the post office.

It amazes me how nikkas are on the internet and still can't research facts regarding a topic...

The real reason the post office loses money is due to Congress.

Over 80% of our current year net loss is attributed to factors that are outside of management's control, specifically, the amortization of unfunded retiree pension liabilities and non-cash workers' compensation adjustments.

For over a decade, the United States Postal Service has been plagued with the onerous burden of prefunding its retiree health care benefits as mandated by the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act (PAEA) of 2006. The mandate requires the Postal Service to prefund its retiree health care benefits 75 years in advance, paying for retirement health care for individuals who haven’t been born yet, let alone enter the workforce.

Support the USPS Fairness Act

Theyve been brainwashed since the 80's Regan revolution to believe government is the problem. We're talking decades of propaganda.

Notice that it is the dumb ass out of work actors (Reagan and Trump) that have did the most damage to the American government. Reagan started that firing of government workers (air traffic controllers) that let the Republicans know that it could be done without ramifications.

Supreme court needs to limit execution order power

Too late. They have already told him that he can't commit a crime. So now he is calling himself King and openly committing crimes; and telling the Courts to go to Hell. President Musk is threatening to impeach Judges if they don't shut the Hell up.

Come on man

I work here. I Literally see hundreds of packages of medications processed daily!

 

[Mike Nasty]

have a personal belief that he's doing this just to hurt the post office because he believes those mail in ballots lost him the election against Biden.

Revenge tour type sh*t

Nah shytting on the USPS is one of the Republicans favorite talking points.

The board has been trash & needs to go , prices has skyrocketed & service is trash

This only happened because Trumps pick in his first term, former Postmaster Louis Dejoy, started a ten year "modernization plan". Basically tearing up shyt and firing people in the name of restructuring. He stepped down the other day right before this announcement.... how convenient, btw.

Congrss needs to do something

The post office is protected by the constitution. They were founded in 1775, so theyre literally 1 year older than this country

 

[FlimFlam]

if you arent well into career status (taking like at least approaching a decade) the secure working class prestige of the post office been waning...and then covid likely killed it... pre and post covid post office are functionally 2 different entities and employers

and this isn't me saying i want it to go! just an insider experience anecdote

Congress is owned by the very people who want this

particularly republicans

And you think that getting rid or slashing the Post Office won’t lead to higher prices in shipping
You nikkas are idiots
I worked for the Post Office for 20 fukking years
I saw it all
You muthafukkas are spoiled and don’t know what’s about to hit you
Want them Nikes
Welp you about to be paying 20% more because of tariffs with no free shipping
Now Fed ex, UPS, Amazon or whoever the fukk can charge premium pricing
You need that medication from the VA or your family does
Welp instead of free shipping or $4.95
You gon be paying not only $100 more for said prescription because the cap is off med pricing
How about another $60 for shipping
Live in a rural area
You won’t be getting mail 7 days a week
Try 2 to 3 days a week
Well I want to talk to somebody about a missing package
bytch get fukked, automation won’t give a fukk and if you catch a carrier on the street
They will tell you to go fukk yourself too because they are on time restraints because their scanner is tracking them every minute like it does now
But if the stationary event is too long
The carrier won’t get a warning like they do now
They’ll just outright get fired because you guessed it
There’s no union to back them
FMLA will be taken from carriers
The pay is already shytty but hey it’s been privatized
Starting pay is $14 an hour with no benefits
You think your service is so trash now
You wont be able to shop your little empty hearts out like you think you will
Oh you think you’re paying premium prices for groceries ad other necessities
Wait until this disruption hits every supply chain that businesses use the Post Office for
But y’all problack right
Well who has kept the black middle class afloat
That’s right you nerd ass nikkas
The Post Office is one of the biggest employers to black americans
You cosplaying nonblacks and Captain Commando Hairline having fakkits have no idea that if this really goes through
Everything around you will come crashing down
