50. Di-Fi and her Husband also making millions selling off our post offices

Many of which are WPA treasures, our national heritage as valuable and irreplaceable as the FSA negatives (Dorothea Lange, Walker Evans etc) in the Library of Congress.

I was also thinking how right wing convenient this dismantling of the post office network is...beyond the obvious boon to privatization and ALEC beneficiaries UPS and FedEx and whatever corporate power ultimately feasts upon the gazillions pension/health fund that Issah strangled the USPS to pay ahead 75 years...which is what's also forcing the fire sale of these buildings, to pay this unjust financial demand.

Shock Doctrine to get rid of one of the remaining Unions, fair employer of women and minorities at a middle class wage, largest employer of vets. Additionally just the existence of this national network of US Post Offices...a national network of accessible buildings for the community... are exactly what ALEC doesn't want for supporting community movements.

So Di-Fi and her husband are raking in millions selling off not just our heritage but also our community centers. Why should a senator and her husband openly profiteer from this pillage?
