UPS, FedEx & The Post Office – More Evidence That The Government Sucks At Everything

Posted on 20. Aug, 2009 by Josh Ray in Liberal Logic, Random Stuff, Yes He Can

President Obama was at a meeting this week and in an attempt to put down the fears of those of us who believe that a public option will drive private companies out of business he had this to say:

For a second he almost had me believing in him and I started to feel some of that hope but than I realized something. While the President may have a decent point there he is missing the bigger picture. He just admitted that the post office is failing while private companies are thriving (the recent gas prices have hurt their stocks but they’re still alive). I’m not going to bring up the fact that Mr. Obama just threw another group of people under the bus, postal employees, because I think we all get it now that the Democrats will throw their own mother’s under the bus if it will get them where they want to go.

Let’s add the U.S. Post Office to a long list of failed endeavors our government has taken on such as Social Security (bankrupt), Medicare (bankrupt), Cash 4 Clunkers (Epic Fail), Education (Fale), more to come…  Do you really want the same people that planned cash 4 clunkers running your health care?  What happens if your medications run out as quickly as the c4c funds did?  Do you really believe that government run health care is only going to tax the super wealthy?  Do we really need more government health care options?  If they couldn’t fix the problem with medicare, medicaid, chip and all the other programs why do they think they can do better this time?  If you have the answers I’d love to hear them, please leave a comment and enlighten me.
