    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.
    Boycott Israel now, avoid the rush.
