Should have let them die decades ago... UPS, FedEx, and DHL are more than capable filling the void.

You're probably right. Theres no reason to be sustaining the losses they are. The problem is the constitution (which it is mandated by) and theyre a huge employer.

You'd have to find ways to wind down such a huge operation.

naw ups is struggling bad right now. We started shipping out monitors to remote employees and it’s taking 3-5 days, when we pay for next day shipping and everyone lives in or around our office city.


On top of that they charge almost twice as much as usps.

they started these remote privately owned franchises and the franchises are not even on the same systems. They’re a shytshow right now. Their infrastructure is being exposed.

I’m not a trump fan, but forcing USPS to make China pay their fair share is needed.

USPS is forced to have employees prepay pension 75 years in advance. A rule set by Bush

That's the real reason for their financial issues. Get rid off that bullshyt rule and you'll see the numbers change.

No other government entity or business has a rule like that. If that rule was a thing for most other companies, you'd see the same results.

Nah, he’s wrong. USPS has been targeted by conservatives for years and it was hamstrung into the current position. They were operating at a profit until the GOP put some weird restrictions on their funding that no other organization has ever had. The USPS is also the only reliable carrier in places where private companies won’t go, specifically rural places (trump voters).

the only plus side to usps failing will be rural voters having to realize they are the true welfare queens. Hopefully it doesn't happen.

In 2006, Congress passed a law that imposed extraordinary costs on the U.S. Postal Service. The Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act (PAEA) required the USPS to create a $72 billion fund to pay for the cost of its post-retirement health care costs, 75 years into the future. This burden applies to no other federal agency or private corporation.

If the costs of this retiree health care mandate were removed from the USPS financial statements, the Post Office would have reported operating profits in each of the last six years. This extraordinary mandate created a financial “crisis” that has been used to justify harmful service cuts and even calls for postal privatization. Additional cuts in service and privatization would be devastating for millions of postal workers and customers.
