Who is making up the $10B loss, the tooth fairy???

Interesting point. Guess by that logic, the tooth fairy also makes up the difference between tax revenues and government spending in general (otherwise known as the Federal deficit). No, USPS does just what any corporation or government does when it loses money... it borrows to cover the losses. How much money did Sears Roebuck lose last year? Do you think the taxpayers bailed them out?
