USPS Can't Deliver Mail, Can Deliver Billions to Wars
Newsweek highlights a critical problem: Americans aren't receiving mail for weeks due to USPS staffing shortages. But don't fret, while your grandmother's pension check sits in a sorting bin, Congress approved another $95 billion in foreign aid in April 2024, including $26.4 billion for Israel. (Source: Congress.gov, S.3565 / H.R.8035) One might wonder how the world's wealthiest nation struggles
to staff its postal service while simultaneously finding unlimited funds for conflicts abroad. It appears the priority isn't your utility bill, but rather ensuring the endless supply of F-35s and bombs. Perhaps a few billion redirected from another endless war could fix those 'shortages.' What a novel concept: prioritizing the home front.
