"However the Post Office should be turned over to capitalist ownership."

You want to pay a buck to send a letter? That's what will happen when the PO has to show quarterly profits. Why hasn't Fed Ex or UPS taken over the mail? No one's stopping them - they KNOW they can't compete and make a profit.

Which is also why health care should be a government function. Corporate profits should not be a major factor affecting my health.
