I’m glad to see our Letter Carriers getting involved. They do so much good work and they already work harder than they need to because of outdated equipment, not enough staff, and DeJoy literally ripping out equipment and shutting down sites for the last 8 fucking years.
The destruction of the postal service cannot stand. There are literally numerous things in my life I still have to mail in a check for, and suddenly that becomes prohibitively expensive and difficult to ensure timely delivery once it is privatized.
We already have accurate USPS mail tracking. We have overnight delivery and other speedy delivery options. I already can get an email showing me mail that is arriving soon to my mailbox. We already have friendly mail carriers who know your house and know where to drop off letters and parcels, and often have notes about the best place for parcels for fellow carriers when they take a day off or retire.
Privatizing mail is just going to result in deeply reduced service and access in rural areas (where most Trump voters are) while increasing costs in all areas and slowing the delivery and accuracy of delivery of mail in populated areas. Also, there’s questions about, since it’s no longer under Federal control, if laws about opening other people’s mail will stop being enforced, and suddenly it’s a free-for-all in identity theft and just general theft of mail.
