    I have a good picture of this article. I mean I can imagine the pros and cons of the situation.

    Eliminate 110,000 managers equals 7 billion 150 million dollars in savings. Create 10k new t6's to replace management costs only 500 million. It can be done. This is what our union should be pushing for. Then we won't have to negotiate with a middle man like we are with management. It will be with an arbitrator. It goes to arbitration every contract anyway. Management has increased 28% since 2000 and the workers have decreased 20%. This is why customer service has fallen. . Now they want to decrease our ranks by 220.000. That leaves about 400,000 to do real work. If management gets their way again this means 1 boss for every 4 workers. It was 1 for 55 when a stamp was 23 cents. Even with HR 1351 passing this won't keep management from destroying our postal service. They will continue increasing their ranks and paying their bloated salaries with our jobs. Management will still close plants and stop universal service to pay their bonuses'. We still here congressmen telling Donabloe how good of a job he is doing. I don't see it! I say FIRE DONAHOE! And get rid of the middle man. LOCK OUT ALL MANAGEMENT!

    If Congress fails to reassert its authority on this particular point of issue, I believe we'll see many more attempts to abuse Executive Office power through national propaganda schemess<a href="http://www.autos-clever.com/">.</a> The only course of action that I believe will have any affect is to doggedly investigat­e<a href="http://www.auto-ready.com/">,</a> prosecute when the facts are exposed... and reregulate corporate media ownership to FCC standards and levels that once insured non-domina­tion of key markets.

    he gets away with it cuz he chairs gov reform committee; just wants to privatize post office to benefit himself/republican cronies. Fortunately enough others see through the spin (HR 1351 220 supporters)

    I was just thinking Canada. I have been up there about 10 times and if I lived there, I don't think I would smoke or drink. I think the cigarettes were around $8.00 (canadian) and you have to buy alcohol at a state store or a bar (drink). We stopped at a state store and it was $26.00 (canadian) for a quart (vodka) I think. That was about 7 or 8 years ago,I can't image what it is now. I quit smoking 6 years ago (I had smoked for 30+ years) because of health concerns. Its not that hard to quit when you start having health problems and I am quite sure it was my smoking. But it wasn't heart problems... depends on the person I guess.
