[QUOTE="PiedmontSteward, post: 1383991, member: 42270"] I thought you were a big union and solidarity guy? You're awful quick to throw our brothers and sisters at the USPS under the bus. The USPS is operating in the red because of a pre-funding mandate set by Congress in 2006 during the Bush years. They're required to pre-fund retiree healthcare benefits [B]75 years[/B] in advance -- they're paying for retirement bennies for people who haven't even been born yet. If you remove the pre-funding requirement, the USPS operates in the black. See: [url]http://www.apwu.org/news/web-news-article/based-falsehood-ryan-budget-would-plunder-postal-service[/url] [/QUOTE]
