I don't have complaints about the service at the post office, but that it has a 3+ billion dollar deficit. It is clear that the service has not adjusted to new technology and how it has impacted communication.

Closing post offices is a political issue. It should be a business decision.

The federal government is too big, as most of us agree, cutting an out-of-date money losing service would go a ways toward government efficiency; and I would hope it might start a trend.

The decline in mail volumes happened as abruptly as the rest of the Obama Depression.

People quit paying bills so creditors quit sending them bills ~ thereby cutting costs. Folks without money don't buy stuff so advertisers quit sending them advertising.

It's all quite logical and not at all a problem with technology.
