Ben Franklin And His Post Office.........

If good Ol' Ben were alive today, I'm quite sure the Post Office would be the last thing on his mind. Maybe not.

The Post office was of course one of his prized projects. How would Mr. Franklin handle the Debacle the post office was in.

I know the first thing he would do.......People driving around in Jeeps and walking a few steps making $60,000 @ year would have a choice  A.) accept the fact that your salaries would be cut in half  and  B.) Kiss your Union Rep. goodbye !

I have a feeling the Ben would want the Post Office privatized. I don't think he ever envisioned the Bureaucratic Monstrosity that has morphed today.

In fact, he would be scratching his head at the Federal Reserve System. He never meant for that to happen, several other Bureaucracies would have his head spinning too!

The Dept. of Interior, The Dept. of Education, The Dept. of Transportation just to name a few. He would be telling us the Federal Government was too bloated, It need downsizing, the states could handle alot of the tasks the Federal Government was doing.

Then he would ask why the State Legislature wasn't electing U.S. Senators, at this point I think Ben Franklin would be ready to go back where he came from.

A much harder but simpler time in history !

YOURS IN LIBERTY ! ! !
