Re: USA Postal Rates increasing
Just curious, what do you do?
Besides paint everyone with the same brush, that is.
Can you draw me the line?
Military personnel: yes
PO workers: no
Teachers? Firemen? Police Officers? Congressmen? Whose benefits would Roady like to pay for?
Don't most private employees have some sort of benefit system in place through their employer? Well, check me if I'm wrong, but for public employees, WE are their employer, so yes, we are on hook for their benefits.

Re: USA Postal Rates increasing
Most Government employees or their fellow employees vote themselves the benefits they receive without much public, you know their employers, input.
You can always tell someone who works, or has a family member, for the Government. They don't believe you have the right to question their pay or benefits. Elitism at it's finest.

Re: USA Postal Rates increasing
And my job is none of your business unless I want it to be your business.
I worked for the Government as a solder and after my enlistment.
I know what type of people work for the Government. Most just start out as a job they are happy to have. But a few years into it they become jaded like the rest and think they are saviors of mankind and actually deserve even more than they are already taking.
Solders are the only Government employees I have any respect for.
Would I have more respect for the rest of them if they didn't whine like a bunch of babies and actually let the public vote on their raises and benefits? Yes, I would.
But to have every holiday off, great benefits, and get paid for the rest of your life after 20-30 years of work and still whine is beyond the pale.
Instead of being thankful most are spoiled brats.
