The post office is a pretty big operation. Odds are you'd need corporations to run it. A handful of private individuals might have enough wealth to own outright a portion of it, but not the whole thing.

So, let's say we end up with one or more private corporations owning USPS. Where do they get their authorization to operate as corporations?

The answer is THE STATE WHERE THEY ARE INCORPORATED.

So, the Constitution presently gives Congress the exclusive right to establish post offices. Now, let's discuss the federal governments law on corporations ~ how to find them, how to get them, how to use them.

And the Necessary and Proper Clause gives Congress the right to delegate that authority if a private agency can do it more efficiently. Smart guys, those drafters.

And now we have 50 states, 50 different regs, 50 different service costs structures, and 50 different corporations trying to move our mail.

No thanks.
