White Chicago Alderman Says Afro-Americans Have "Lock" on Postal Jobs

CBS TV Chicago reports on a white Alderman in Chicago:

Ald. Burton Natarus (42nd) was shouted down at the Democratic Party meeting to choose a new Cook County Board president candidate Tuesday afternoon for a strange and racially-insensitive remark about the post office.

"The delivery of the United States mail stinks," he said. "Of all the places in the United States where Afro-Americans have an opportunity with benefits and with good pay to do a job, it's the postal service. They have a lock on it. And that's fine. I'm for it. I'm for it. They can have it. I want them to have it. But I want service."

It's not fair to blame certain groups for the ineffeciency of the U.S. Postal System.Monopolies always fail.No word yet on why Alderman Natarus funds and supports the Chicago Public School system which is a much bigger failure than the postal system.
