Without the post office our lives would be profoundly different?
How?
I wouldn't even notice.
I haven't sent a payment by mail in at least 10 years.
I occasionally get a check in the mail and that's only because there was a fee for a direct payment. Eliminate the USPS and those fees would disappear.
Sure, I get Amazon deliveries by the mail, those would flip over to the Amazon truck or Fedex/UPS.
If I need to send someone money, it's Paypal, Venmo or Zelle.
Just because YOU haven't caught up to technology, doesn't mean there are no alternatives to the post office.
Sure, we could hail it's passing with a flag and a monument, just make sure the first 50 feet are straight sided and sheer or some woke doofass will try to pull it down.
