49. Cutting back postage services is just more conservative foolishness
1.If private enterprise could offer preferable service, they could already. The only way they could exist is to charge more for less service. The only way for them to exist is to unseat the superior model.

2.This is another attack on union workers. Blaming the post office for their depression related problems. Their troubles are the manifestation of Bush economic policy. Use the economic crisis to justify attacking the postal union, teachers union, and auto workers union.

3.Increasing time costs on essential business services is not an effective move to combat the economic troubles.

4.Decreasing the wages of decently paid union workers will decrease their consumption and make the economy worse
