The post offices don't even know, at least the little local ones. I told this to my post lady and she looked at me like I was nuts. I said why do you think it all has to go to Milwaukee first now and then come back, even if you're sending it a block away? Then it dawned on her that I was right.

While the elites control the money, government, and media, the 99% have the numbers. One Libertarian may not be able to resist being sent to the concentration camps, but one million people might. |

Checkpoints were started to stop drunk-drivers, but then DWI checkpoints lead to safety checkpoints, seatbelt checkpoints, driver license checkpoints, virus checkpoints, and checkpoints for any reason at all. Nanny state laws against smoking lead to plastic bag bans and straw bans. Tyranny leads to economic collapse because taxes rise to pay for prisons and no one wants to start a business when everything is illegal. The police state leads to poor morals because churches are closed. Tyranny and poor morals lead to corruption and more crime. |

There was a time when you didn't need a driver license to drive. Later you needed a driver license and the police needed probable cause to stop you. You then needed to give your fingerprints to drive. Now no one can go outside because everyone is under house arrest. The elites have covered all the bases and closed all the doors. The globalists kill or blackmail constitution friendly judges. The ruling class uses FISA courts. The government just does whatever it wants- law or no law, constitution or not. The 1% gives campaign donations and cushy job promises to politicians, hacks election machines, and forges ballots to install their candidates. The elites control the media, Hollywood, Wall Street, and the government. |

Ours goes 8 miles out to Tampa, through three post offices and back just to mail it a mile down the road. It's just a scanner. It uses a Very bright light and it copies the entire front of the envelop and reads the writing. If the mail piece matches a file for a changed address, it prints the new address on the evelope. it forms Metadata and analysts from various agencies enterpret what it means. ie. certain conclusions can be drawn about a person that gets various mail pieces. Sometimes more can be understood just because the mail went somewhere, without opening and reading the mail. ie. Who sent it, and who else did that person send mail to. Smart people analyse it.
