Any way we can make it independent enough to send it through bankruptcy?

“Any way we can make it independent enough to send it through bankruptcy?”

That’s already being considered. BK will void the union contracts giving USPS more flexibility. But BK won’t touch pension over-funding, mandatory six day delivery, and small office closure issues. The USPS will want a solution that gives them the ability to address these issues as well. Currently they are constrained by rules that they have no power over. It can’t be run in a businesslike manner when operational decisions are imposed upon it from the outside.
