    The reason the USPS is going broke

    This amazes me, I want you to pay close attention to everywhere it was on the 22nd this was for a seat cover. The reason we ordered from this place was because of the close proximity to where we live.

    USPS is horrible, they shouldnt be in business.. I see that all the time. To compare i ordered a package from Bangkok, Thailand that only took 2-1/2 days from a business to my door, Now thats great service. DHL

    I'm about to post my current tracking on a few packages.... Is almost as absurd as yours, DAM

    I feel like they are doing this on purpose. You just can't be that inept. It gets worse every year, year after year. It's got to where I told Weezy the other night that I'm avoiding buying things from people who ship USPS because of all the hassle

    This thing just disappeared into the Memphis Postal Hub Abyss and I haven't seen it yet. BTW, PA is northeast of me and Memphis is southwest of me. Figure that one out. They drove it right past my house, 4 min off I-65




    The next item was just a couple hour drive south of me, and then it's in Houston Texas which is 13 hrs south of me, and then it's all the way back to Bowling Green.... So Joe and Judson, your t-shirt is going around the country before it gets to my house. Next time, I'll just make the two hour drive to Jackson and have coffee with y'all so I can wear my shirt on the way home.





    It's ludicrous at this point. I got packages from KS, WA, CA, LA, and MI all within four days all shipped within a couple days of these other packages

    Leaders with private corporate interests are trying to destroy it. We're back a 100 years or better to needing to enforce antitrust laws. That just doesn't apply to this topic, but is a serious issue with everything in the US right now. Off topic, but something else to think about is - It's not federal, and there's no reserve.

    That's is just crazy. For what it's worth, any cross border transactions I've done between USPS and Canada Post have been flawless and without the BS broker fees courier companies charge. Hard to believe your domestic delivery system is so messed up.

    THIS^^^^

    unfortunately, we are trapped in a political stalemate between the party of "muh, free, unfettered, unfair market!" and the token socialists who are owned and beholden to the very people guilty of the biggest monopolies and the worst AT law breakers, and yet their "constituents" seem oblivious to that irony and hypocrisy

    In other words, they are on the same side as the other, the one opposite We The People

    Give them a break, mail delivery is just a cover for a government subsidized spy operation.

    https://nypost.com/2021/04/28/usps-a...dia-posts/amp/

    It’s really brilliant when you think about it. Ammo, chemicals, hobbies and interests all in one tidy little data base.

    Remember the adds in skin rags that claimed “not even your mailman knows”? They lied.

    https://www.infosecurity-magazine.co...-clearview-ai/

    So if you look at the second link it seems they are putting together a data base to link your Internet images to other activities. Nice.

    If you posted anything negative here I assume you can expect your future deliveries to be lost or damaged.

    The f-ed up shipping mishaps don't cost them extra money, the trucks are already driving to all of these hubs. It's not like they are sending a special truck out. The problem is, in no particular order: excess wages and compensation, under-funded public pension funds that need to be propped up, money losing bulk shipping rates with the likes of Ebay and Amazon.

    IIRC the Postal service was meant to be self-supporting through the fees for shipping and postage. As usual, once the government and unions got their fingers in the pot it went to sh!t via the issues mentioned above.

    Again, as usual, once the free market started doing what the USPS couldn't do for cheaper, and/or brokering money losing bulk rates with the USPS, the USPS was made an obsolete operation. Nevermind the fact that it's been losing millions or billions for decades, as some of us old farts already know

    YMMV

    I could be wrong on all of the above. Fvck if I know. I'm jus' sittin here sippin' my Bailey's and coffee

    I just wanted to pop in with a rant since I ain't seen most of you peter pounders in awhile

    Hope everybody is having a nice holiday weekend. Don't forget to thank those who gave all for our freedom!
