View Full Version : Trump goes postal with USPS price review

Along with tariffs not changing China, I predict steep increase for online purchase delivered items on the horizon.
Commercial real estate prices for brick and mortar stores must remain at 3% inflation for banksters.
Donald Trump has increased the likelihood of Amazon being charged more by the US Postal Service by ordering an official review of the mail agency’s pricing of package deliveries.
In an unexpected move, Mr Trump established a task force to evaluate the “operations and finances” of the post office after spending recent weeks amplifying his complaints that the post office is losing out on shipments for Amazon.
The move shows the president is continuing a personal crusade against Jeff Bezos’s online giant even as the tech-related worries of lawmakers on Capitol Hill revolve around Facebook, whose founder Mark Zuckerberg they grilled this week.
A White House executive order creating the task force — to be led by Treasury (CZAR) Steven Mnuchin — said it would examine “the expansion and pricing of the package delivery market and the USPS’s role in competitive markets”.
Despite Amazon’s high-tech credentials, it relies on about 230,000 postal workers to deliver millions of packages along the “last mile” to many American homes.

The USPS losing money isn't a surprise to anyone - the entire postal service network was developed and built without regard to efficiency or ability to cost-effectively deliver parcels.

Surprising enough to assign a technocratic CZAR upon it.
What U.S.I. mission appears to be is to recognize a Monopoly in Amazon, then attach reigns to it long enough until its institutionalized as part of the "Deep State" fascist technocracy U.S.I.
Instead of just calling it a Monopoly and destroying it, The munchkin Mnuchkin ofcourse already has the answers to those questions at his fingertips well protected for grubbing and incorporating.

If you could keep the government from borrowing money from it, it would solve a lot of problem. The USPS is a cash cow like Social Security, the government been borrowing for years now, you will never get an honest audit though.

In these days of equality perhaps not only the mailman is at service to the neglected housewife...

Maybe he should take the case to the U.N, too easy?
Stop subsidising Chinese Retailers post via United Nations Universal Postal Union (UPU) terminal dues.
Chinese Retailer are being offered hugely subsidised postal services known as “Terminal Dues” by the United Nation’s Universal Postal Union (UPU) allowing them to sell goods including postage from China to the UK for less than the stamp would cost a UK retailer to send the same item from the UK to the same customer.
United Nations UPU class China, the second biggest economy in the world, as a Category 3 Economy along side Gabon. This entitles Chinese online retailers huge international postal discounts. Packages can be sent to the UK for less than a penny. And it’s the UK mail service and the cost of our stamps that picks up the tab.
Amazon and eBay have made it extremely easy for Chinese Retailers to sell directly to UK consumers on their platforms. Chinese Retailers can now offer 7 day delivery times from China. Chinese retailers now account for 25% of all the retailers on these platforms. They are now taking the lion share of sales, undercutting UK retailers by as much as 90%. British retailers don’t stand a chance.
In 2013 Chinese online sales reached $314 billion, or 35 percent of all world e-commerce sales (by comparison, U.S. online sales were $255 billion). Senator Bill Cassidy recently moved to close UN Terminal Dues subsided post system that helps Chinese Sellers undercut USA Sellers on amazon.com costing the US Mail service $135 million in 2016.

It's incredible the way this works. If I want to wait for china shipping I get great deals for less than I can ship the same to my neighbor. No way to compete with it. As for Amazon why can they get huge discounts through USPS when no one else can? Unfair advantage.

No kidding! This is why I can get cheap Chinese trinkets for less than a buck on Ebay with free shipping. I always wondered how they could afford free shipping from China to the US for such a low value item.

China #3 gets dough in the form of IMF/world bank U.N. subsidies to ship. (I imagine insulated with C.C.P.R. deposits) You are #1 U.S. first so do not receive them.
Why Trump does not go the source to audit? Well because they're his boss. Can't audit your boss only your employees.
