Derp derp derp from your own link "This eighth consecutive annual net loss underscores the need for comprehensive legislation to repair the Postal Service’s broken business model."

How does an annual net loss mean that USPS is "functioning perfectly fine, and creating a profit"? HAHAHHA LOL Socialists aren't very bright.


How can we have meaningful discussion when even the basic facts elude socialists?




Do you even understand why they wrote that in the article?





would it be because the postal service is a bad business model and is losing
money as opposed to generating a profit, I mean, let's not allow these facts
to invalidate you argument right away, tell us how losing money is the same
as making a profit

I'm talking about single payer vs the Capitalist style healthcare system we have.

The Socialist system is MUCH more efficient.





how exactly do you define efficient?




Cost effective? Is there another definition?

Having a nation where you can get the best healthcare money can buy is great if you're an oil baron. For everyone else, it's pretty important to not go bankrupt if you fall ill.

you mean like the great healthcare that Canada has in which their wealthy has to
buy health insurance in order to come to the US for treatment that doesnt require
waiting 2 years on cancer treatment assuming their treatment isnt rejected by the
boards of health

did you think for a minute that we have people that rush themselves and their kids
to the ER for the sniffles or being dope sick or that the ERs are treating millions
of illegals that arent paying the bills and not to mention it expending the
resources of an ER which costs this company money because regulations say they
cannot turn anyone away and have to treat everyone that walks through their doors

that's why private physicians and hospitals treat people and then send bills as
opposed to always collecting when the service is rendered and refusing you when
there's an outstanding bill

Yeah it's kinda like how rich people have to pay taxes to fund the police, but can still employ ex special forces security guards if they so choose.

You want everyone to have to fork over the money to pay the special forces guys because otherwise what's the point? If you can't have the absolute best on the market you don't even deserve to be protected.
