I don’t know if Stossel is innocently ignorant or just lying when he fails to mention that much of the USPS’s losses are due to the Congressional requirement to prefund retiree benefits for the rest of the century. No business could make a profit under that burden.

No business could make a profit if its employees were covered by the Federal Employees Retirement System (which, by the way, the Postal Service didn’t contribute to in 2012).

Oh Boo Hoo...I guess we should give them fat pensions they don’t deserve into perpetuity on the tax payer!

The USPS is just another part of the DNC Mafia skimming tax dollars off the top for unions that give it back in contibutions.

To hell with the post office!
