Privatzation

‘The US Mail Is Not For Sale’: Threat To USPS Is Real Postal Workers Warn

August 1, 2025 Joe Maniscalco, Work-Bites. , , , ,
Despite putting out an “Equity Research” paper earlier this year highlighting “The Required First Steps” to privatizing the U.S. Postal Service—Multinational financial services giant Wells Fargo told Work-Bites this week it isn’t actually advocating selling off the U.S. Mail. Postal worker unions and their allies, however, dismiss that as nothing but corporate “double-speak” and insist the threat is very real and immediate. Dimondstein told protesters, which also included members of the Communication Workers of America [CWA] embroiled in their own protracted contract fight with Wells Fargo, as well as customers and small business owners opposed to privatization from as far away as Iowa, that they were sending a message to the entire country—the “US Mail is not for sale.”

Citizens Mobilize Against Corporate Water Grabs

February 16, 2015 Victoria Collier, www.counterpunch.org , ,
On Feb. 5, New Jersey became the latest state to subvert democracy by authorizing the fast-track sale or lease of water utilities without public notice, comment, or approval. The controversial decision highlights the intensifying struggle over who owns, controls, and profits from the most precious – and threatened – resource on Earth. We tend to associate corrupt water privatization schemes with the developing world, where according to the World Health Organization, nearly 2.6 billion people still lack a latrine and 1.1 billion people have no access to any type of improved drinking source of water.
