Politics The Postal Service, Voting, and Covid

money is a non count noun, like water or air....and soon the dems will have both the house and the senate so they'll probably give you lots of fuel for another few decades...fortunately you'll have a timeshare in Tel Aviv by then and a southern rock band trashing your house....hey! Rock that life!

 

Electronic voting w/ 2fa and SSN?

 

I felt like the first bill was definitely needed. I hated how much both sides put their agenda's into it, and how long it took. I think it was just crony capitalism dashed with a tiny bit of UBI for the unimportant people.
I'm really, really torn on this 2nd bill they've spent like 8 Trillion dollars already (I believe that may be wrong)... When does the economy turn into Venezuela where they had garbage bags full of money that was USELESS...
The problem is that stuff has happened that has put people in a terrible spot, and even a ton of businesses (especially small/medium ones) in a bad spot too.
The gap of average and rich has grown at an almost exponential level this year, and inflation will eventually if my economics teachers knew what they were talking about will absolutely decimate the middle class and lower class...

 

for the record, me voting in Oregon does not mean that Oregon does or doesn't have fraud too.

 

Glad you have it all figured out for me.

 

Not everyone believes in the connection to COVID provisions.

 

I have it figured out for everybody...that's why my life coaching sessions are so important ..24 lessons for 30K...I have the answers you seek! This offer expires one week from today! Order now and you get the bumper sticker for free!

 

is that you admitting you got owned, or is that a ‘let’s change subject’ type owned?

 

You realize you'll have to throw away your mattress every month you rent your house out...probably replace the overstuffed chairs as well or sofas. That pesky virus can live in your eyebrows for weeks I hear!

 

I could have fixed his problems too....wrong era

 

MIV and COVID? Hardly. I'm sure there are plenty of ways to conduct elections and social distancing. Again, we don't need stimulus monies earmarked towards the USPS. Believe what you'd like.

 

Do you disagree with the idea of either massive reform in the USPS or dissolving it at some point for other options whether private or not?
I'm ok with the idea of either large changes or dissolving it for other options.

I'm not ok with using it for anyone's re-election purposes.
edit: I realize that Trump is using it right now for his own purposes, not because he has any good plans for how to replace the service it provides, and I don't like that.

 

Im sure to some extent all presidents have wielded there power to some extent to help their re-election purposes. No president that I can think of has taken it anywhere close to as far as the current one. Which is a very bad precedent that, when a Democrat decides to do similar things when the time comes, you can bet republicans will react similarly to how democrats are now. Its a very bad precedent not a fan of it at all.

I think the ‘mail’ is somewhat out dated. It still provides a good service, but I think part of it could be privatized, and parts of it could be streamlined to be better and more effective.
Just like with Police Reform, Teacher Reform, or any reform of a major government system that people rely upon if reform is going to happen it needs to be well planned out, and well thought out.
Making massive changes to a system people rely upon for the purpose of re-electing yourself, seems irresponsible.
