No, hard working free society tax payers have propped up the USPS for decades now.

The Census Bureau and the USPS are both just another tax payer required prop up.

Both are a liability, neither are a producer of revenue.

Taxpayers and their children are the producers who pay for both of them.

Both the Census and the Post Office are at least mentioned in the Constitution, unlike the EPA, Dept of Education, etc..

And the census does allow proportional representation in congress.

Having a regular census was considered by the Founding Fathers (Washington, Jefferson, etc.) to be a necessary revolutionary reform to make way for freedom.

The Brits held off another 54 years but eventually had to cave in on the idea.

No doubt you think you are fighting some sort of battle on behalf of something, but what it is remains unclear to anyone ~ probably not even to yourself.
