I think so. You from SC?</DIV> <DIV style=\"FONT: 10pt arial\"> Sat, 4 Apr 2009 19:59:05 +0000 http://theglennbeck912project.com/news-from-you-2/#IDComment18174706 http://theglennbeck912project.com/?page_id=920#IDComment18046298 following comments to TOPIC: BANKRUPTCY OF THE UNITED STATES POST OFFICE due to limited characters: My suggestion is that a determination be made concerning which type of mail has the most demand for delivery. During this day and age of computer use I feel sure this is information is readily available. Following that determination, increase the postal rates on that type of mail. If the increased rates reduce the amount of that type of mail to be delivered, or demand of labor decreases, based upon the higher postal rates, then reduce the number of postal employees proportionally. Lets get back to supply and demand economics. This "live and breathe" principle (i.e., I live and breathe, thus I deserve) is killing our nation. Addtionally, if we can reduce the amount of junk mail we can also make a positive evironmental impact by reducing the amount of paper and ink used as well as the amount of energy wasted during the printing and delivery of the "junk mail".

I throw most of it directly into the trash bin without ever opening the envelopes or reading the papers, magazines, cards, or flyers. I recognize is that we have high paid U.S. government post office employees that receive government benefits, including each and every big and small holidays off, and government pension plans once they accrue a set number of years working at the post office. The problem with these employees is not them. The problem is that we have high associated mail delivery costs to deliver mail that has minimal mail rates. Its not necessarily the benefits paid are a problem by themselves. It is that the mail that is being delivered does not have a high enough postal rate.

I logged off and my post remained. Perhaps the editing options behoove me. I still do not know my problem. Maybe it is me. I design steel and concrete, not electical circuits. Nor do I blog. I work and take classes two nights a week. So, I am preparing to send tea bags to the South Carolina congressmen and the White House because their addresses are readily available. Does anyone have information of other state's "snail mail" addresses without having to click on each state. I have tried that way but I cannot get the addresses because I have to put in my SC zip code and then it kicks me back to my SC information.

I have tried mabe five times using an original post. Could not get it to work. Maybe a reply will show as a post. Any suggestions on what someone may think I am doing incorrectly?

Do not know why I am not getting posted. My first question- Are we sending tea bags to all of congress or just the ones from our state?

What action is to be taken? WE DO SURROUND THEM, so lets surround them. Let our government leaders know we are coming by sending them a tea bag. It is time now!
