If chutzpah is killing your parents then throwing yourself on the mercy of the court because you're an orphan then Peter Orszag is the poster child for chutzpah. In his recent article in Bloomberg News he insists the best fix for the post office is to take it private. Where does the chutzpah come from?

Privatize the Postal Service? That's Just Going to Make a Small Number of People Rich

It's more than chutzpah. Orszag works for a company that can profit from privatization, and Orszag laid the groundwork for the privatization campaign with his mismanagement while in office. A prosecutor should be appointed to determine whether he engaged in deliberate mismanagement and deceit while in office in order to profit afterward.

ReplyDeleteI think it's more like putting the fox in charge of the chicken house, and then, after all the chickens are dead, promoting the fox to Chief of Chicken Procurement. This type of thing seems to be a feature and not a bug of the current state of our kleptocracy.
atleast the media is doing their job by keeping the people informed about how our government is deliberately trying to destroy the post office.
ReplyDeleteThat's their plan for the US government too, privatize formerly democratic government.
