The Official Biden Collapsing Thread

[Rex Phinney]

LOL at Biden being "hands on".


This guy is a sham of a president, ALL Americans should be ashamed that someone so short on cognitive ability was able to win the highest office in the land. How can anyone have faith in Washington (on either side) when this weekend at Bernie's rerun was able to win the White House.


The guy needs cheat sheets to explain the executive orders he is signing, it's like a bad dream that he is our president.

But Rex, look at how well he has handled all the questions from the MSM.

For sure


"What flavor pudding did you eat today Joe?"
"What's your favorite color Joe?"
"Did you have a good nap Joe?"

Oh Mosty you postal wonder, Trump was not trying to "end" the counting of illegal aliens on the census, he merely wanted to know their status. It's not something that had never been done before.

It would be up to the courts to decide if illegals can be counted towards congressional apportionment.

Why should states harboring illegal aliens be allowed to soak up more political power?
Why should more money be distributed to states that harbor illegal aliens?
Don't you think this will only encourage more illegal activity through the harboring of illegal aliens?

I've seen that Mostpost has repeatedly been ridiculed here for being a former post office employee...and I wonder. Do those who keep deriding him hold more "prestigious" positions than the one that he once held?

I don't know that its MOSTY himself being ridiculed as much as the POSITION itself.

Through no fault of mosty, I can see where bitterness toward the post office comes from. I mean let's see, ...
1. They are almost a "protected" class meaning being held accountable and or fired for poor performance.
2. They get paid very well to perform poorly
3. IT'S TAX dollars that pay them, which gives the tax payer right to complain about them......
The list goes on and on.
Personally, I harbor no ill feeling towards ANY postal employee that does their job to the best of their ability. However, when I see bags of "mail" being discarded ....well you get the point. And lets not even get into the political nature of the post office which was pointed out this last election .... (I know, show us PROOF) will be the response...lol

I would almost go as far to say that fast food workers work just as hard, have a more difficult task, and accomplish it better.

Public can be very finicky about their food yet, I can't even get mail delivered to me that has a PERFECT ADDRESS written on it for them to read????

Im sure it's hard to decipher which house is 1234 NO Where RD (even given the house has a huge address plaque on the brick outside and numbers on the mail box that MATCH perfectly).

I am so sick of ignorant people like you. 1. People are held accountable for poor performance all the time. They lose their jobs. However most postal employees do their jobs very well under not the easiest of circumstances.
2. People in every profession make mistakes. I didn’t always work for the post office. One of my jobs was correcting mistakes on orders before they became uncorrectable.
3. This is why you are especially ignorant. Taxes do not pay my salary nor the salary of any postal employee. They don’t pay for my retirement. However, I do pay taxes, just like you.

The United States Postal Service delivers more than 150,000,000.000 pieces of mail a year. It has over half a million employees. Once or twice a year you see a story about some carrier through a few hundred letters in a dumpster. That carrier is fired immediately.
ETA Any carrier caught dumping mail is also subject to Federal charges.

You're 100% correct on the USPS not being taxpayer funded.


It's atrocious financial standing then is what you get when you mix top line revenue of a traditional customer based business with expenses (employees/ retirees) paid out like a government entity.


I'm not saying the retirement structure of the USPS (and most all government work) is totally freaking ridiculous, but the finances of the USPS don't lie......


Also before your statement regarding paying taxes can be correct you have to state whether you are pre or post 1984 USPS, because if you didn't pay into Social Security then you didn't pay the same taxes as Joe Public.

No person should ever be derided for any position that they work at or have retired from after years of service!

I can go with that, during the 2008 2009 downturn I thought or valued the American worker more having been affected by the downturn. Today we see our Police under attack, even with the growing pains of our time I can't identify with such logic having genuine friends who were cops. In every employment sector you will find people who make bad choices, if I signed a bogus certificate a company I worked for that would have been paid a greater percentage of moneys work for that quarter complete that maybe no one would have found out about and I might still be working for that company. I know that I did the correct thing, once you start in the wrong direction the number of mistakes grows. There are plenty of Americans in every profession that do the right thing to not cast blanket of negativity on anyone of what they do or once did for work.

Joe is currently the most prolific executive order president EVER

Hands on women, but not much else.
The POS is a 48 year loser, nothing more.

The atrocious financial standing of USPS has nothing to with retiree benefits except that thanks to a law passed by Republicans in 2006, the Post Office is required to prefund retiree health benefits for a period of 75 years. A burden that no business public or private has to carry.

I started at USPS in 1977. But I paid into Social Security for 15 years before I went to work at USPS and I paid into SS while working at USPS after 1984. I also paid into the USPS retirement system FERS.

Some of the people hired prior to 1984 who worked their whole life for the PO never paid into Social Security. BUT THEY NEVER COLLECTED BENEFITS.

[sandpit]

Well, it makes sense that if you have a job and don't pay in, then you shouldn't collect later. The something for nothing mentality is what is sinking our country.

Btw, the schoolteachers in KY don't pay SS either; their pension fund they pay into was supposed to make up for the difference. However, and predictably, the decades of democrat-controlled legislative leadership raided the fund so that it is horribly in arrears. When Rep. Gov. Matt Bevin tried to get it fixed, the teachers union revolted and it cost him a second term.

The post office in my little town is wonderful, at least the 3-4 women who I see working their regularly are. I will say that other peoples' mail ends up in my box though. But they're no worse that the Amazon drivers, who look and act like they were hired from homeless camps.
