I think they should raise the rate a good nickel ONLY when they commit to forcing smaller pensions and making more of these folks pay for their health care, at least pick up more o of the cost....

some of us are pinching pennies and working on 401's for retirement and others are just still getting the big fat defined pensions....it has to change...

They have, dude.

Some 35,000 employees took early retirement this year. They have been replaced by part-time employees with lower wages ($10-$15/hr) and no benefits for the first year -- followed by the opportunity to get health insurance with a 25% contribution.

No retirement, 401K or other, at all.

All small-town Post Offices will see their hours cut to between 2 to 6 hours a day. The Postmasters, should they wish to stay, will have their wages cut to $18/hr.

Satisfied? Did you even know any of this?

Why smaller pensions? USPS workers have already OVERPAID over $70 billion beyond expected costs of their retirements into their pension accounts.

I think you are confounding USPS with your county courthouse crowd, or maybe your local schools. Now if you want to find some looting going on, start asking questions at home!
