Ups to USPS!

When the host of HBO's "Real Time with Bill Maher" was questioned if he really wanted healthcare and the banks “to be run like the Post Office” (meaning "nationalized") he replied:

“I can mail my sister a postcard
from California on Monday and it gets to her in New Jersey by Wednesday
for .42 cents….. h*ll yeah I’d like it to run like the Post Office!”

Savvy Quote of the Day

"The retail industry has stolen the word 'saving' and redefined it as saving money when spending.

Saving used to mean putting money away in a savings account or in a piggy bank. But, now we must spend to save."

Tim McAlpine President/Chief Strategist
