Social Security will go broke in 13 years but we'll still have mail. Oh and by the way if you insist on getting your mail picked up at your door just leave it there and use the internet to request a pickup it's a free service which I'm sure us cheap seniors will love. So to all the conspiracy that are on this board if you actually knew what was going on he'd be happy to have a real business person in charge of the mail service 2 get the efficiency up. Maybe if you would insist on the real cost a first-class postage being on fire to generate money to pay for machinery and the overtime you would understand how real business needs to work
Agreed. This is also why socialism does not work. Is the govt really going to do a better job controlling the entire economy and owning the means of production.

BTW I do walk about 0.6 miles most mornings to get the mail. And in my neighborhood at least a few more do so.
