WordYard: "Postal mail has been on a slow downward spiral for some time, but it seems to me these new postal rates represent the acceleration of that process.
As email eats away at one end of the service and FedEx, UPS et al. chomp away at the other, the Postal Service's business shrinks to the center - remnant bills that can't be paid electronically, personal cards, and commercial messages (mostly unwanted credit card pitches that can become identity-theft bait and forest-devastating catalogs)."
I know from personal experience that what was previously called here in Holland and in Britian the Royal Mail, the public postal service, is going down the drain. Privatization and deregulation wreak havoc everywhere. Don't have your parcels from the US shipped surface mail; they won't arrive or at best after three months.
'Free trade' is just an other word for chaos and price hikes.

The Dutch MIVD (Military Intelligence) have tortured people in Iraq. They used hoods and electric shocks.
Our government (present and past) and PM call themselves 'Christian'-democrat. Nevertheless they collaborate with regimes that use torture.

The BBC's Panorama had a special scientology episode.
Scientology is not a church, it's a cult of money. They only call it a church for tax reasons. Their ideology: get as much money as possible without any scruples. Lying is one of their methods. And they are very vindictive. So they have a totalitarian streak. They call this 'fair game'.
