"Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain"

Raving Reporter Thunder here.

In a typical example of how the government works and its disdain towards the citizenry, post offices across the country addressed the problem of long wait times by removing clocks from their lobbies.

It is touted as a standardization measure, but even the post office's Dallas spokesman alluded to the real reason:

"We want people to focus on postal service and not the clock," said Stephen Seewoester, Dallas spokesman for the U.S. Postal Service.

I guess they think we're all stupid.
