Kevin Craig - "Liberty Under God"

We favor prompt, reliable and more efficient six-day per week postal service. Delivery of all forms of mail should be privatized.
We recommend that the United States Postal Service continue its practice of screening and hiring local people to fill postal positions.  
We oppose closing small volume post offices.  
We favor the continuation of next day, in-state delivery service.  
We are opposed to any postal rate increase in the near future but if one should occur we believe that postage should be increased to reflect the actual cost incurred in handling all classes of mail rather than the majority of the increase being levied on first class.  
We propose that in lieu of any further postage rate increases, more contract mail deliveries (including in town) should be made.  
We oppose any fee or tax on internet transactions or e-mail messages. This is an urban legend.
We also suggest that there should be more quality control and less waste.  
We are opposed to the sponsorship of any activity or event by the U.S. Postal Service.  
We favor postmaster training in conflict management to stop "postal" incidents from happening.
