People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
  7. If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

As an example, if you hold the opinion that the government shouldn’t be responsible for mail services, you can’t just cut it without making sure that there is something else well regulated there to pick up the slack. Regulation does not equate to unprofitable.

That's because they're trying to privatize everything, and I mean everything. For your example, Amazon, Fed Ex (Post office, mail dude hired by trump was CEO of one of the majors) or something similar will take it over. They don't want to replace it. They think all that tax money is their personal bank accounts or toy funds, and they can give it to anyone they want. They also use it for extortion and honey pots because they run themselves like the mob.

I hope you understand your comment is not constructive. I understand the rage and that it is a fact, but it doesn't add to the conversation. You ignored that I said "regulated". Some Republican ideas work "ok" under the assumption there is regulation.
