The United States Postal Service is suspending employer pension contributions for workers beginning Friday, citing a looming cash shortfall, the agency announced Thursday.
"The financial strain was further exacerbated by global tariffs, high inflation and recent spikes in gasoline prices, along with growing competition from private carriers such as Amazon, which now delivers many of its own packages."
This just points to government fragility. This is across the board, City, State, Federal cuts are coming because government is spending far too much relative to its income. It could tax more, and as we see in VA anything that isn't nailed down is being taxed. A kids dog walking service TAXED. Drycleaning? Taxed..

The hiring isn't of employees that will help the citizens... nono ... hiring of more managers, will they see a shake up like Google? Hell no.
Since 2019, California has been on a hiring spree. Under Gov. Gavin Newsom, the size of the state's workforce has grown by roughly 20,000 employees, according to California's human resources department " but that growth hasn't happened uniformly across the classes of civil service.

Seems like there's nothing the government won't tax. But it won't stop the spending or hiring or growing the public unions ... why? well, as I articulated a year ago, the unions donate to democrat politicians. Where do the Unions get their money? Well fraud is how, as documented by the indictments in CA.....
Its funny too because a month ago I was ridiculed about declaring the amount of fraud is unsustainable. Yesterday Newsom and Bonta both NOW claim they are fighting fraud, so they threw a couple of immigrants under the bus. Hoping to satisfy the hoi poloi.
Dark times ahead because people aren't seeing the reality, just a fantasy of how they'd like things to be.
