It's about damned time.

The US Postal Service (motto: We're like a money tree for all other government services!) announced today that they would cease delivery of residential first class mail on Saturdays. The move is designed to save money for a service that is being pushed to financial ruin by the federal government.

And when I say "saving money", I mean "laying people off during a recession".

Has anyone told President Obama that the post office is going to lay people off?

His "job recovery" numbers are gonna take a hit because of this.

Maybe he should tell the other government services to get stop front loading their retirement funds from the revenue stream generated by the post office.
