Rush Limbaugh Adds the Postal Service To His List
Rush Limbaugh, in his daily radio broadcast on July 19th, 2007 included the Postal Service in his attacks against government waste and inefficiency. Many people don’t understand that the Postal Service is all but private and not public funded through the tax system. The postal service is funded by the stamps and postage, not as it once was through subsidies, (except for philately.) Stamp collectors do receive some considerations, but the rest is paid for by that stamp on the letter. In order to keep unions at bay the Postal Service has managed to keep some of it’s government oversite. It’s a joke to say they have a monopoly on the mailbox, simply because UPS and others will use the mailbox after the letter carrier has delivered his delivery. On Sundays the local and national news will use the mailbox for their media.
