Mark Perry of Carpe Diem adds a Dickensesque tale to Obama’s USPS / UPS comparison.

Coke machine:works and is modern.
Stamp vending machine: 20 years old and out of service.

So taking the metaphor forward.. just imagine your for profit MRI versus your “free” government one. Personally, I’d prefer the new one that works.

    Yes but FedEx has no media rate or junk mail service. I guess the “Artful Dodger” will feature them for an additional charge.

    Ontario High School lost 25K in support for athletics from Coke because the stinking liberals that run this state passed a law banning soda sales on campus. Good job, liberals! Why do I still see bunch of fat kids walking around? Maybe legislating behaviour doesn’t work?
