Selling Out: Our Public Space, Universal Services Under Assault

Abstract

"Public space, universal community services and their historic traditions which bind our nation together are all under assault. A Presidential Commission recommends that the U.S. Postal Service obtain commercial appraisals of their post offices and land with the view of selling the property off to help pay its expenses. The smaller postal services can find a place in a commercial mall to handle its 'customers', advised this Bush-appointed Commission, dominated by corporate executives."
