    USPS sells this information for mail advertising. If you don’t want to be included in that, you can opt out via USPS.

    Fill out Form 1500 and drop it by a post office to be removed from ad lists. It’s free.

        A kneecap here, a hobbling there… well USPS, you ain’t lookin so hot. Might need to cut your funding. Again.

        Why the fuck is DeJoy still there again???

            I’d rather the post office sell ads than our taxes be increased. Government funding ain’t free and if the USPS can’t support itself financially at least for the most part then it’s incredibly vulnerable to privatization and elimination by Republicans.

              They don’t need to increase taxes, they need to remove the person trying to cripple the USPS and allow it to be properly funded with the billions already collected every year.

                As a postal contractor I don’t see any evidence of an effort to cripple the USPS from within.
