How can I properly get up to speed with the USPS, it's problems and who's involved with causing them?
- aaronbrethorst 6y agoThe USPS: https://about.usps.com/who-we-are/postal-history/pmg-franklin.pdf https://about.usps.com/who-we-are/postal-history/pmg-frankli... Its problems: https://ips-dc.org/how-congress-manufactured-a-postal-crisis-and-how-to-fix-it/ https://ips-dc.org/how-congress-manufactured-a-postal-crisis... (when the Republican Party held the White House, Senate, and House simultaneously) Who's involved with causing them: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/aug/13/donald-trump-usps-post-office-election-funding https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/aug/13/donald-trump...
- ibn_khaldun 6y agoThank you. Perhaps this will lead me down the trail that explains why the Postmaster General is apparently the second-highest paid U.S. govt official after the President.
- MagnumOpus 6y agoHm? Most public college presidents/chancellors are paid better than the postmaster, let alone all of the NCAA football and basketball coaches...
- briandear 6y agoThose links are useful, but a bit one sided. IPS and the Guardian? Is there not another side to the story? Shouldn’t one desiring to be educated about the issue be informed on all sides of the issues? Seems biased to use only left wing sources.
