I'm sorry, but it's hard to determine if you're arguing in good faith or not. The message right before this you stated that you're perfectly fine with privatizing pensions, cutting union contracts, etc, but now you claim you care about not punishing people. Furthermore, you claim to be against wealth transfers upwards, but this privatization would do exactly that. You need to sit down and actually think about the policy results of what you're advocating for because you seem entirely confused.

Just handle postal services like eg Germany. They privatised Deutsche Post and abolished the monopoly. Other European countries did similar. Germany is hardly the land of unbridled capitalism. But even they saw the light. In general the European policies are far from perfect, but they show that the American arguments for nationalised mail are bogus. > The message right before this you stated that you're perfectly fine with privatizing pensions, cutting union contracts, etc, but now you claim you care about not punishing people.

Government employees should get the same options for pensions as the rest of the population. The best option to help workers is a vibrant job market. Unions mostly just protect the insiders, like union functionaries are just in general people who already have a job.
