    Another public service that is simply not showing a profit. 200 years of grifting the public.

    Wait until they find out it’s the rural communities causing postal service to be cost ineffective.
     

  5. That's what Bernie Sanders said ''Fuck everything up , then say government doesn't work and privatize it..... give it to the billionaires.''

    What they seem oblivious about is that it's the shithole states that will feel the most pain.

    Break government and drain the swamp...they keep saying.

    Retail in person USPS shipping prices are triple the eBay discount prices for shipping labels.
    Privatize the USPS into a UPS competitor. Go to four days for mailbox delivery.

    Your premise does not support your conclusion.

    UPS charges what, about $7 to send a letter?

    Raise the USPS pricing to the equivilent, and maybe people will stop sending worthless mail.

    The issue is first class mail
    Its against the ;law for anybody to deliver first class mail
    All other classes can go through private companies
    First class stamp should be about $3.00...people will accept that
