5 days agoThis. The GOP has wanted to privatize USPS forever. They keep it barely functioning so they can point at it and claim that only private industry can save it. Then they bring in their friends and throw those sweet taxpayer dollars into their own coffers.
Amazon’s role isn’t surprising here, either. Bezos couldn’t get closer to the Trump admin if he were sleeping in Melania’s bed.
Expect similar moves to be taken towards privatization of ATC in the US. Thankfully it’s much more heavily regulated, so it has at least taken more time and is harder to choke as quickly.

If things continue as they are, eventually there will be no more skilled programmers.
