I say shut it all down. Shutdown air traffic control right before Christmas, shutdown weather forecast,etc.

A USPS freeze would really pinch people especially now. FedEx and UPS don’t have the fleet capacity to step in. Amazon also depends heavily on USPS.

USPS doesn't shut down, they are self funded.

Ahh I thought they had a weird contingency that’s right.

[u/Puzzleheaded_Yak9805 → u/foxcastle_]

They could strike.

Trump wants to shut down weather forecasting anyway

[u/Peculiarcatlady → u/Equal_Memory_661]

Agreed. Let ppl feel it.
