  1. I mostly don't really care what it costs tbh it's still cheaper than a DUI, and these workers deserve to not be screwed over by a money losing company (money losing by design). The only thing good about these companies is the app to summon the driver and their ubiquity.
  2. The formula by which the postal service sets rates for parcels was set by congress in the 2006 law that required the postal service to prefund 75 years worth of pension and health care costs. Maybe that law needs to be revisited. But because this area of business is subject to competition the costs the USPS charges for these services can only go so high before Amazon/UPS/FedEx can swoop in with other business. A lot of people here won't like this proposal, but we could always grant the USPS a monopoly on small package delivery, or whatever the technical mail term for that may be, to force more business into the USPS. This in addition to postal banking, other pilot programs to create new revenue, and reform of how the USPS funds it's pensions and health care obligations would shore up the system for time to come.
  3. The Commonwealth's attorney is the wife of 4th district rep Donald McEachin. She ran unopposed in the primary!
  4. The message is the party would be in 3 or 4 parts in another country that wasn't fundamentally broken, and can only come together in the face of a goddamn fascist, and even then it's tenuous at best.
  5. Powell is responsible for more dead Muslims than have ever been discriminated against in this country We're the 04 RNC but cool with gay and trans folks love it
  6. I like beer. I've cut back on my drinking recently but on the weekend I might have one or two. Flavored seltzer water has been my thing at night to avoid snacking and drinking. Helps me anyway.
