It’s rare to see city leaders in Chicago take an open, unabashed stance on the collapse of literacy. To complain is deemed as too political, too racist or too anti-public schools. So it’s refreshing to see Willie Wilson, a successful businessman and leader of the black community, call for a literacy initiative “with the goal of getting 100% of Black students reading at grade level.”
Who are the poor folks Gona have to steal and rob from if you fire 50% of the postal delivery pilgrims.
How about just delivering the mail every other day with a postal worker doing 2 different routes one each day, and FIRE 1/2 of them and STOP LOSING BILLIONS EVERY YEAR!
I don’t know how to explain to you that public services aren’t supposed to make money.
LOL yes they are, with a minimal level of subsidy.
Neither are they supposed to hemorrhage it while providing sporadic, slipshod service in an age of e- mails, direct deposits and other factors that have drastically lightened the load of important mail being delivered.
