what should we do

I received this information from a friend about political elitists ripping off we the people again.
I am forwarding this to my senators and Congressman for what good it will do.

          




Hi Folks: 


The US has entered into a contract with a real estate firm to sell 56 buildings that currently house U.S. Post Offices. The 
government has decided it no longer needs these buildings, most of which are located on prime land in towns and cities 
across the country. The sale of these properties will fetch about $19 billion.   


A regular real estate commission will be paid to the company that was given the exclusive listing for handling the sales. 
That company is CRI and it belongs to a man named Richard Blum.   Richard Blum is the husband of Senator Dianne Feinstein and is shown with her in the picture above. (Most voters and many of the government people who approved the deal have not made the connection between the two because they have different last names).
I heard the deal was not put up for a bid. Hmmmm you don't think that was on purpose do you...

Senator Feinstein and her husband stand to make an estimated $950 to $1.1 billion from these transactions. His company is the sole real estate on the sale. CRI will be making a minimum of 3% and as much as 6% commission on each and every sale.  All of the properties that are being sold are all fully paid for. They were purchased with U.S. taxpayers dollars. 


The U.S.P.S. is allowed free and clear, tax exempt use. The only cost to keep them open is the cost to actually keep the doors open and the heat and lights on. The United States Postal Service doesn't even have to pay county property taxes on these subject properties.   QUESTION?   Would you put your house in foreclosure just because you couldn't afford to pay the electric bill?  


Well, the folks in Washington have given the Post Office the OK to do it!   Most of the net proceeds of the sales will go back to the U.S.P.S, an organization that is so poorly managed that they have lost $117 billion dollars in the past 10 years!  


No one in the mainstream media is even raising an eyebrow over the conflict of interest and on the possibility of corruption on the sale of billions of dollars worth of public assets. How does a U.S. Senator from San Francisco manage to get away with organizing and lobbying such a sweet deal?   Has our government become so elitist that they have no fear of oversight?   And it's no mere coincidence that these two public service crooks have different last names; a feeble attempt at avoiding transparency in these type of transactions.  


Pass this info on before it's pulled from the Internet.  


I even verified it on Snopes: http://www.snopes.com/politics/business/blum.asp  and Snopes usually puts a liberal spin on whatever it reports.   


It also was verified on TruthofFiction.com which is a more reliable source for checking Internet rumors.  You can read what they said by clicking on: http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/b/Blum-Post-Office-Sale-061013.htm#.Ulls5Nvn-vE 


NOW....here's the test...Does this TICK YOU OFF?  If it doesn't, then don't complain about the corruption and the ineptness in D.C.  You apparently have given up or have turned a blind eye and don't care.
