Why do my hard earned tax dollars support a bike team?

Hey,

Why does the US federal Government support a bike team in France? I
work hard for my money, and think the taxes I pay could be better
used. What a Boondoggle!

Thanks,

Actually, the US Postal service is entirely run from funds received from
postage. If you don't want your hard earned money to go to the US Postal
team, don't mail anything.

Like any other company, you have to advertise to get more business. USPS
wanted to get more customers in Europe to use their service, so they sponser
a bicycle racing team. For the money they spend, they get an excellent
return on investment. So they continued to do so until ignorant folks
started to complain.

Bob, this guy doesn't understand that. He is really not all there. He
spreads so much crap around on this board and for some reason people reply
to him. Best thing to do is put him on ignore.

Ahhhh, ok. It's been a while since I came here, because the place is like
the MFW boards -- they eat you alive sometimes, usually over nothing.

I doubt most of the D3 pro's make enough to be taxed anyway. Sure
they take the taxes out, but you should get that all back. If not,
then you should spend time talking to an accountant and less talking
about all the money you're losing, because technically, just being a
pro bike racer in the U.S. is losing you money.

DUDE -- you're being trolled.

Dude...........

I wonder how you could use the USPS services in Europe??? Each country has it s
own postal services, most of the time a Federal Agency or close, so the
advertisement reason is void for Europe. Works only for USA
