What others said. Just Google USPS and drop-off boxes being taken away or locked. This should be a national outrage.

Quoted from Rezdog:For some odd reason it appears to only be a problem in select areas ...or districts if you will.
almost like on purpose or somethin, crazy right
Quoted from gorditas:I have a small mod that has been within 20 miles of me for a week. USPS was often slow, unreliable, and had unmotivated employees BEFORE this stupid pandemic. COVID didn't improve any of those issues. Add in extra package load, staff that can't or won't return to work, and you get the nightmare we're in. USPS is long past due for restructuring and or reorganization.

Seeing as you're in MI, this isn't directly the fault of the USPS. It's on purpose to slow things down
Quoted from gorditas:These type of problems have existed at that poorly run distribution center as long as I've lived here. More than once, I've seen packages cross my state several times, pre-COVID. I'm afraid it is precisely the long standing fault of the USPS, not some conspiracy related to the election, as I presume you are alluding to.
Not a conspiracy when you have multiple lines of evidence to back one's claim.
Quoted from seenev:I've had a lot of problems with USPS lately. They've been a mess for years but the last few months have been a train wreck. USPS has lost $78 billion since 2007, so they've been doing poorly for a while. Then pandemic mail volume combined with increased costs have basically broken the camel's back.
I might suggest reframing the "they've lost X amount"... That's like saying our military has lost us $750 billion a year. It's a service, not a for-profit.
Quoted from Flowst:Any chance we can leave the politics out of this?
I mean good luck when one side is making it a political issue.
Quoted from flynnibus:Cherry picking stats and inserting false titles --> Useless Crap.
Look at the documented USPS plans for equipment reduction dated MAY (aka before DeJoy) and including more than battleground states (like California).
Yeah, CA is on there, but mess with enough of it in CA maybe eek out a win? Granted, not gonna get 4 million, but it's not all about WH, there are other seats to win
Quoted from Mike_J:Let me guess, your favorite section of Disney is Fantasy Land.
CNN is no better than Fox and vice versa. It’s all a huge crock of bs.
Technically you're wrong. In spirit I hear you. But going by data, not supported.
"A new study by Bruce Bartlett, a conservative economist, top official in the H.W. Bush administration and domestic policy adviser to Ronald Reagan, concluded that Fox News viewers tend to be less informed and engage in "self-brainwashing."
Quoted from iceman44:What a surprise. Turning the postal thread into a political football.
Should be shut down
Provides ZERO value
1. It was turned into a political football because of WH
2. Should be shut down is your opinion
3. How can you say it provides 0 value? also your opinion
Quoted from iceman44:Lol. # cancel culture. Only one side opinion matters
If politics are allowed in this thread then let’s tee it up and go at it
Here’s one for you. Can you hear the sound of the swirling water?
I'm not even sure what your argument is here.
To clarify, data and evidence > opinion.
Quoted from iceman44:No, I’m sure don’t get it
The rules seem lost on you
As in shutting down my opinion and then discussing politics with the USPS
If you’d like to debate me on the facts and look foolish just pm me. It’s better that way
Seems like it’s allowed in this one
Hey man. I don't think I'm shutting down your opinion, I'm asking you to perhaps back up your opinion. NOt sure why that bothers you. My apologies if it offended you.
Quoted from Blitzburgh99:Fauci says wearing a mask, keeping 6 feet apart, and hand washing/sanitizer will keep us safe.
If that’s good enough to shop at wal-mart, pump gas, and gamble in casinos....then it’s good enough to vote in person.
Some countries take great pride in voting....[quoted image]
Do you not see the error in your logic?
