		<description><![CDATA[THE REAL ISSUE.  
This problem with USPS is not a lack of money, it is bad management. One tiny example that costs tax payers millions every year: Postal &quot;carriers&quot; don&#039;t have to carry the post any more. They can drive to each house, turn off the engine, deliver the mail, turn on the engine, drive to the next house, and repeat the process. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jzn4ga2tJvM&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jzn4ga2tJvM&lt;/a&gt; This wastes gas, engines, starters, and the knees of postal workers through repetitive stress syndrome. Why do they do this? The union. They used to park at the base of the street, and push the mail from house to house in a letter carrier. Not anymore. A dollar tax per email couldn&#039;t save the USPS. Only provide postal workers with even better benefits than they already have. Only good management could save the USPS. I could do it, if the union were taken away.   ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Also on the flip side it would be very easy to rack up the bill against someone else, like a business competitor or stalking victim. I&#039;m betting Obama&#039;s voter app would be exempt, of course. 
 
Many internet services relay on automatic downloads. Doing a per byte tax would end automatic updates, the cloud as a mobile data store, cluster computing, VoIP and pretty much every new development since P2P, around 1997. 
 
Morons who propose this idea did not give it much thought. Welcome to liberalism, which we have been living under since 2006. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[And make illegal the electronic paying of our other bills.  I&#039;m guilty myself of using about a &quot;book&quot; of stamps a year, mostly to send out cards and such.   
 
Seriously, we should be thankful there were no federal buggy whip manufacturers.  We&#039;d still be using out tax money to keep them open.  Altho&#039; Detroit DOES have a paid blacksmith.  The UNIONS say he&#039;s necessary, and he makes about 30k + 27k in bennies.  I&#039;m glad they can afford that. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One consequence of such a tax would be diminished use of the &quot;legal&quot; internet, and the rise of &quot;illegal&quot; ISPs, run by gangs who would offer &quot;free,&quot; tax-free service to users for a fraction of the pennies proposed by Wozniak and the U.N.  These &quot;hackers&quot; would find a way of bypassing all the regulations and controls, just as gangs found ways to bypass Prohibition and cigarette taxes and so on. It would another episode of the Keystone Kops vs. the Kilobyte Klan.  ]]></description>
