    right. they dont make money off mail anymore because the worls is permanently different. we are not gonna suddenly go back to mailing checks to pay our bills. the old system is dead. thats why they will lose money from here until forever. they are not self sustaining and never will be again.

    That's not what I said. They will simply raise rates to cover expenses, just like Fed-ex and UPS do.

    You are not the world. The post office moves lots of volume. My mailbox is full every day . . . letters, packages, cards, boxes, advertisements (it makes mail cheap), samples, magazines, catalogs and more.

    Mail volume has declined somewhat because of email, but it did not disappear by a long shot. People still send stuff that can't be typed on a black berry. Snail mail will never disappear.

    Yet their policies were facist, which leans to the right of the political spectrum. More intellectual laziness which is no surprise. I bet you even think the GOP freed the slaves.

    Also, where exactly is "there"?

    Abraham Lincoln | The White House

    As red has said often ,"you're entitled to your own opinion but not your own facts".
    and a quote from the article:


    As President, he built the Republican Party into a strong national organization. Further, he rallied most of the northern Democrats to the Union cause. On January 1, 1863, he issued the Emancipation Proclamation that declared forever free those slaves within the Confederacy.
