A question slightly off-topic here: Have you, or anyone else you know of on Substack, mused on the reason why postal workers were not mandated the jab? I remember hearing something obscure about Maritime Law or something, but didn't understand it

The USPS' surveillance operations include snooping into people's emails as well, which got some passing attention during heightened 'security' with covid. Ironic and revealing that our tampering with the mail is a federal offense.

Ordinary customers are paying as much as we do primarily to compensate for all the reduced fees and deals bizzness gets (think, and thank, all your junk mail).

The USPS has been another one of those successful ('socialist'!) public services of the past (post offices used to double as public banks) which has been steadily defunded (controlled demolition, especially rural services) to advance costly and crappy privatization (e.g., UPS, FedEx). This has included cutbacks adversely affecting workers, who used to enjoy one of the better and most stable of jobs in the economy, with such predictable results as the proverbial 'going postal' on the part of employees (a general condition across the alienating experience of wage slavery).

I did not know about email notification of mail. Cannot envision why needed. I have had "mail' opened but both times the contents were gone. One gift package from Amsterdam and another from within these United States. Evidently customs opened my Amsterdam mail and expropriated my grass. Simply a gift from a compassionate soul who sought to help me in grinding poverty. And the five year later opened mail also saw weed stolen by USPS. Not one piece of mail pertaining to overthrowing and overcoming the biosecurity state has been.
