Social Security Checks?

[bassin_bug]

I was looking forward, to walking to the mail box once a month for my Social Security Check, and just a couple years before I get to do just that. President Obama has messed with that, like he does with every thing else. " when does Obama ever sleep " now no more wasting money sending out paper checks. http://finance.yahoo.com/news/dont-w...120033750.html

From the news reports I have been reading for the past few days, the USPS is going to close a lot of post offices and lay off 35,000 workers. I guess direct deposit may not be a bad idea after all. It has been eons since we have had any type of checks delivered to our mailbox. Direct deposit is just faster and safer, imo.

It's going to be interesting to see how the Postal Service handles local mail deliveries. For years it's been called 'snail mail,' I wonder what it will be called after all those layoffs and closures.
