I'm actually surprised that the USPS still exists in its current form. In several European countries, there's now very limited postal service because people just aren't sending regular mail anymore. It's all email and packages. As a result, public postal service have either been more or less shut down or privatized into a parcel service.

The US isn't well at the moment, is it?
The EU doesn't have that kind of power over individual member states. It's not like the EU is like a federal government.
Children sometimes pick up firearms from an unlocked safe that everyone thought was locked and an accident happens. There are lots of scenarios where the person having possession of the firearm would never have any safety training.
What I mean by that is that if OPEC (or any of the other big producers) decided to cut all of their production for a long period of time (e.g. a year), it would completely destroy the world market and the other players would be able to do nothing about it. It would simply take so much supply away that prices would go crazy.
Maybe not the same influence they once had, but every one of those producers can destroy the market on their own if they wanted to. That said, oil will overall be far less important over the coming decades as transportation and manufacturing move away from fossil fuels. Europe is very far along the way on that already.
True. And there's only so much the US can do. At the end of the day, OPEC can just raise or lower production to destroy any US policy.
I wonder is this will help or hurt the sales of that particular backpack. Could be a break even.
Unless Republicans choose to abolish the filibuster, they can't do it. Takes 60 votes in the Senate.
Won't this just get the orange to push even more for drilling and further harm the environment and climate?
how the fuck does anyone have a magazine-fed gun and not know that removing the magazine doesn't unload the chamber
A child who finds a firearm in an unlocked safe that the parent thought was locked may not know. Or many other scenarios.
Not gonna happen. Too many fundamental differences between member countries and too many very powerful anti-EU groups in the individual parliaments and in the EU Parliament. The Amsterdam Treaty of 1999 also ruled out and prohibits the idea of a federal, EU-wide citizenship. The EU will always be mainly a trade cooperation.
