Sorry pinhead, even FedEX is posting record losses due to the depression/recession.

Why don't you think before you make a post humiliating yourself.

So, idiot?  if you could comprehend, my point is that someone on this board was talking about the post office being a success, others were talking about it losing massive amounts of money.....I think this latest news proves who was correct.  Now run along, junior, adults are talking now.

You criticize things you dont' know about...

How big an entity is the US post office?

You have no idea. 

But here you are flapping your lips like you know something and you know shit.

You know how to repeat your libertarian cliches.

That does not impress me.

You are talking but actually saying nothing...big surprise.  Like I said, someone, probably a gimmick of you by the way you are acting, said the post office was an example of a government run entity that was a rousing success.  It clearly is not and that was the whole point, which of course you missed. 

You strike me as a lifetime student who loves dealing in theories, but with virtually no real world experience outside your very limited scope.  Check back in 10 years.

Pretty much the only time you see USPS post a profit is when they increase the price of stamps.  They then take that money to the treasury and use it for times like these.  Well unfortunately they have long since run out of money, and they are bleeding money.  A company like Fedex almost always posts a profit on the other hand, with the exception of times like these.

Decker, why do you have to come off sounding like an ass man?

The post office budget is 70 billion a year.  They lost 7 billion this year.

Fed Ex is cutting its budget by 17% for 2009.

Fed Ex lost 896 billion with earnings down 20%.

These are called facts.  Unlike you, I don't talk out of my ass and then engage in personal attacks.

I argue with facts and then engage in personal attacks against waterheads like yourself.

People like you and that other steaming pile of misinformation make it easy.

Private companies competing with the post office are losing a larger percentage of money yet you guys cherry pick the post office's 7 billion dollar shortfall to push your libertarian nonsense about all things gov. are bad.

It gets tedious after a fashion.
