If all of America truly knew about the illuminati and most of the four hundred richest Americans, they would simply revolt, kill the wealthy and take all the assets and stir them back in to the economy. Their goal is to destroy us and then make us slaves. No joke. And most people in America are too stupid to realize it. Mitch McConnel and his Chineese whore are upper middle management.

@PGMEagle The post office business failure is the result of an outdated business model that has failed to adapt to modern technology.The post office will go to the wayside with outdated relics like Jesse Jackson,Amtrak, and Ted Kennedy. Good riddance

The Right Wing? All Government run services are a drain on the working class since they cannot show a profit or even break even. Sorry, that's unions and civil servants demanding a wage pay scale so high when a 5th grader could do a better job. Employed by the Mother Ship does not constitute employment it is a place to go where you are paid. Did you know there is a recession outside of your world. If you had to find a job in the real world you wouldn't qualify for a paper route.

Ironic that the right wing destroyed the Post Office with the worst policies of both socialism and capitalism. Dems and Repubs are the same sht.

Except the resolution he cites is not good for the postal service....it is a band aid on a severed limb. The real solution is to repay the postal service the monies it is owed and leave everything else alone. The resolution he cites is a bad bill....and there are no good bills on the horizon. Because his side (the left) want he postal service to fail just as the other side (the right) want the postal service to fail.

The facts in the video are correct. Yes it was Bush's reign but if you think this is a left/right problem you are duped. Both sides are owned by the same owners. They want to keep you in the left/right paradigm. The real problem is the owners....the bankers....wealthy elite....Federal Reserve bankers (who are European...not American). Wake up America. For more info....search Alex Jones.

What is wrong with paying people a living wage for their work?
Union busting will lead us to becoming a third world nation. Which we are on the way to becoming already.

This is more PROOF that Corporations are cannibalizing our government. Corporations have bought off BOTH political parties & ALL polititicans. This is what happen in Nazi Germany in the 1930's, their government allowed the Corporations to COMPLETELY take over. We have become 'Corporate-America' in all aspects, freedom is being taken away from us. The postal service will deliever mail at the same speed as it did during the 'horse back' days. PostalService was the ONLY 'money maker' the govt had.
