Or how much transit funding comes from ticket sales vs. government budgets.

A pretty crappy service, at that. Not unlike almost every other government service I’ve ever experienced.

I live in rural America and let me tell you the USPS is a complete joke here. Everyone knows it, and we choose to use UPS/FedEx instead. I don’t have a mailbox anymore nor do I have a P.O. Box. Many neighbors are going this way, too. We don’t want or need their services anymore. They’ve become too unreliable.

And the military is a pretty crappy service too! I've been paying huge amounts of taxes for it and it's never once kept me safe from enemy soldiers. Frankly, as someone who works in an office tower in lower Manhattan, the US military has probably put me more at risk of dying, all things considered. We don't want or need its services anymore.

Right? Or is the Post Office a special case?

Like I said, "Not unlike almost every other government service I’ve ever experienced.". So, yes, we largely agree.

I know you wont believe me, but Trump is helping with this. The Abrahan accord and returning troops from the middle east should help with this.

No, I do believe you. There's a lot I don't like about his approach, but if he's decided the "bring the troops home" is a populist plank, I'm certainly not going to complain about saving both their lives and the lives of civilians in the Middle East.

And honestly I could probably be convinced that there is no responsible way to get ourselves out of the mess we put ourselves in over the last several decades and the only solution is a commander-in-chief willing to be irresponsible.

What unfortunate is the how much junkmail is responsible for those losses.
