I lost my mind when Trump was questioning the safety of mail in voting and every leftoid started acting like the USPS was our greatest achievement as a country. They were even posting shitty corporate memphis cartoons about postmen. Seinfeld was cracking jokes about how useless they were back in the early 90s but I'm guessing the ineptitude can be traced to the mid sixties.
I didn't know that about Spooner. Will have to read up. Thanks.
Mid sixties? Which century, because the American Letter Mail Company (Spooner's competing mail carrier) started in 1844, before being outlawed in 1851. Postal ineptitude is their tradition, standing well over a century in age, and closer now to two centuries. 172 years since they outlawed competition because that's how incompetent they are.
And I can highly recommend reading up about Spooner's company, as well as the man himself who helped popularise the philosophy of anarchism (the ideology that most lolberts rely upon the most but never shed their ingrained statism to fully adopt). Even if you disagree with anarchism as an ideology, it's interesting to learn about none-the-less.
