You are making an assertion that USPS is taxpayer subsidized. Ever since 1973 it has been financed out of its own revenues from stamps and other postage.

You claim it is taxpayer subsidized.

It's up to you to PROVE such a false contention.

The problem here is they've got to cut costs but CONGRESS won't let them! Unless those costs get cut they won't be in business anymore.

Ok genious...

USPS is a protected monopoly. Protected by laws.
We don't have a choice for first-class postal service, no one else offers it and they can't.

Postage rates are set by WHO? The mandates are set by WHO?That money comes from WHOM?

TAXPAYER FUNDED MONOPOLY. Can you repeat that without slobbering on your shirt?

And you are lying or too lazy to do your research, USPS was rec. tax funds well into the 80's. (outside of the normal money they get every year for free services that I don't really count)
