Consitution? PFffffft!!
Meanwhile in France
"Post offices are everywhere, private banks don't have locations outside cities... How about we create our own bank linked to the postal services!"
A postal bank that uses GNU Taler would be pretty legit.
IF THEY PRIVATIZE THE FUCKING MAIL I AM GOING TO SCREAM. Is nothing sacred?
Does everything have to be a business to this guy? Some things are government services bcz they need to be done, and private businesses wouldn't make money off it. Not everything needs to be an attempt at making money off people.
My country did that long ago. Works worse every year.. sometimes I have to wait for my Mail for a week. Used to be 24h.
There's a HUGE real estate incentive here. Yeah the service can make tons of money for whatever company comes in but the real estate imo is the big one.
You Americans will have to fix the shit this idiot breaks for generations to come.
i didn’t think they will be able to. all the kleptocrats will make sure that there’s some legal document that will guarantee that they get hugely compensated in the event that the government tries to take their property back.
Americans will give Democrats exactly 4 years to fix the damage and then vote for Republicans again. Bush and Trump are two of the worst people to ever hold the job and it still didn't cause any lasting animosity.
Again?
