1. Some insurance plans require rxs by mail

[Illumination]

20. The US Postal service is essential!

[SheltieLover]

21. ABSOLUTELY!

When I worked in the legal field some years ago, USPS was the only official way to serve notices, etc. Other carriers didn't count. Not sure if that has changed. But you are absolutely correct, USPS is essential!

3. They will die.

Perhaps they do not care?

16. Like many Americans....

they really don't know how things actually work. I suppose they think the mail just magically appears in their mailbox every day. They have no comprehension of what's involved in moving that amount of stuff here, there and everywhere and get the vast, vast majority of it to where it's addressed in 3 days time. And for less than a buck, while FedEx and UPS want $20.

[warmfeet]

25. Could be. I never considered such a thing.

I assumed that people living in this country understood how the mail system works. I am wrong frequently. Part of being alive, I suppose.

[paleotn]

26. You and me both....

We live in a super complex world. Whole lot of stuff I don't understand. My wife's medical world is still a mystery to me 28 years later.

[SheltieLover]

22. When hatred of "others" and delusions are your driving force

5. When you can convince them that COVID is a hoax while everyone around them is dying

You can certainly pull the wool over their eyes when it comes to the "goddamn Post Office".

[safeinOhio]

6. And they call us Sheeple?

Hard to understand.

[Mr. Ected]

11. They don't realize they're blind

They think that darkness they see every day is reality.

[budkin]

[malaise]

9. She should

have added are they okay with losing their social security and Medicaid as well. In Missouri the majority of people on Medicaid are in rural area. Last week Missouri voted to expand Medicaid and most people in rural areas voted not to expand it even though many are on it.

13. They picure the "other" when thnking about benefits

[Mr.Bill]

10. What's scary is this:

My wife called in several prescriptions to OptumRX the other day. We have dealt with them for years, and they ship through the USPS. We asked the operator if they were experiencing any problems with shipments due to the crisis with the USPS. She asked us what crisis was that? She, a person that deals with the shipment of prescription drugs through the USPS for a living, was completely oblivious to the whole situation.

We, as well informed people on a website like DU, must constantly remind ourselves about how uninformed so many people are. Let's just say the lady at OptumRX is now much more informed after speaking to my wife.

[NNadir]

14. She's on fire. Good for her.

15. he keeps making things worse for himself!!

much of the country is already pissed at him for his lack of action on the virus. Now he thinks it's a good idea to screw with post office that many people (including republicans) like! It's blatent voter suppression!

the thief in the oval office says absentee ballots are good but not mail in voting! Why? They both have to mail them back.

[Demovictory9]

23. Postal Freedom is essential!

[OneBro]

24. Targeted disruptions.

My money says these Fascists are more than capable of targeting the disruptions so they hit urban and democratic leaning areas while expending the resources necessary to prop up rural postal services.
