Should the striking postal workers not just be grateful they have a job?
The postal service here in the U.S. is also losing billions of dollars. For too many decades it provided not too demanding jobs that paid several times what other jobholders with similar education were getting. Those jobs usually went to the connected good ol boys, and there were not very many women who got them. Groups of workers who have had the power to be overpaid get a sense of entitlement, like autoworkers and teachers in certain parts of the U.S. When the political and economic power shifts, they think they are victims.
