I don't think that is entirely right......the Post Office consistently shows they lose money and asks Congress to allow them to charge fees based on costs and to eliminate some services that cannot be competitive. Congress doesn't give it to them because it would hurt us consumers...yeah right. Congress continues to cover the deficit with our tax money, but the post office has been up front that they are losing money and will continue to do so.
