Stop the manufactured crisis of our postal system

MORNING MESSAGE

Dave Johnson
Help Save Our Public Postal Service

The Grand Alliance to Save Our Public Postal Service is calling for support of two House resolutions that urge restoration of overnight mail service standards and a continuation of six-day delivery ... These resolutions are in response to a new attempt to manufacture a crisis in postal delivery ... Here’s how to manufacture an anti-government “crisis”: cut funding for a government service and put people who want to kill the service in charge of managing the service ... Declare a “crisis” and say that government doesn’t work so “reform” is needed. Of course the “reforms” involve gutting the service, privatizing it, corporatizing it – anything but serving the public.
