Re: USPS going down
It seems odd that a few people are calling for the USPS to be profitable. We don't expect the FCC, the DOD, the FDA, or any other government department to be profitable. Our expectation is productivity rather than profitability, because they're a service, one that we pay for with our taxes. Congressional oversight of postal rates has been crippling the USPS for years... it seems ludicrous to expect to have an item hand delivered hundreds or thousands of miles away for less than fifty cents. How could profitability possibly be expected?
