In a nearby city the USPO wants to close the old downtown post office which is lightly used to cut costs, and has no parking area.. The main postoffice in no more than two miles away, easy to access and plenty of parking.
Downtown business people, probably many Republicans, are howling about the inconvenience. IMO we need to close this and many other government operations and get this runaway economy under control.
Sometime back I talked with the postmaster of my hamlet about the constant call for more money from the USPS. He said part of the problem was that in many areas where there are redundant distribution centers, the locals and their congressman set up a howl of protest when a consolidation of these areas is proposed. This appears to be a good example..
