“Unlike for-profit entities, such as FedEx and UPS, our postal service is required to send mail and parcels to remote areas of the United States and as such is a necessary service that millions of Americans rely upon to, quite literally, live.” https://thelefthook.substack.com/p/this-is-how-magas-plan-to-privatize?utm_source=post-email-title&publication_id=2686450&post_id=153281411&utm_campaign=email-post-title&isFreemail=true&r=1psrs&triedRedirect=true&utm_medium=email
This is How MAGA's Plan to Privatize USPS Will Enrich the Broligarchy and Screw the Rest of Us

Donald Trump is "looking at" privatizing USPS as a means of enriching his billionaire buddies at the expense of harming his base, gutting necessary services, and selling America to the highest bidder.

Many folks, here in Canada, did not understand that the recent Canadian Postal strike included this issue. Harper's Conservative intentionally undermined the Canada Post to undermine it financially. Now, Canada Post is looking to reduce workers, which will mean rural and isolated northern communities will be without service or have to rely on privatized services. The Liberals did nothing to repair the damage the Conservatives did.

That's why we Canadians need the NDP leading the country, instead of nudging & cajoling the Liberals to follow through on progressive policy.
