Ok, maybe someone can clear this up for me. Is our postal service still a government operation or has it been privatized?
As far as I know, it's still run by the governemt and as such, I find the following just a bit disturbing...

It's still government but will be privatized probably within the next year or two.

I don't know why everyone rallies against the post office.
$.37 to send something anywhere in the country in a few days isn't that bad of a deal. I'm obviously for privatizing everything, but I just don't know what everyone hopes to gain from it.
- The Sleeper - 04-12-2004
it's only 37 cents to send something under an ounce. shipping prices can be pretty expensive. not that i'm against the post office, just sayin.
- The Jays - 04-12-2004
But why does the post office have to keeping raising stamp prices, when they have their own sponsors, like Lance Armstrong?

How do you cite a source for an opinion? Like this?

Once again Arpi is 100% wrong. Any rational human understands that if you are going to make an argument and state something as fact, you should be able to prove it as fact.
Everyone disagrees with Arpi.

arpi pulling things out of his ass? nothing new.

i had written a defense here but then thought better of it.
i realized, why bother?
when galts little puppets are dancing on his strings there is no stopping them.
so go ahead, continue having to call me a liar as your only reply to my arguments. it only proves how inept and defensless you are at intelligent debate, that you have to rely on it when you realize that you are beaten is victory enough for me.
