without explaining why, he showed either ignorance or bias..........They lost money, because congress forced the USPS to finance ALL postal workers retirements, immediately, for all workers through 30 years from then.....That would bankrupt all corporations.

The other thing, is FedEx and UPS, both utilize the USPS for "last mile delivery" in all of Rural America and Alaska, which is extremely expensive.........

The USPS also has some other unfair things they have to do, that Fedex and UPS don't have to do, which cost a fortune.

The two largest Unions in the U.S. are the USPS and Government..........the RepubliCONs have targeted them big time
