Not that you'd like it, but their relationship to UPS and FedEx is simply one of "express, baggage and freight". And it doesn't have to be as good as it is now.
SURFACE WORKS WELL in America ~ it's just not fast.
To be honest it doesn’t bother me at all that usps contracts with ups and fedex. they must see some benefit in doing so to get their express and priority mail packages to where they need to go.
If it would be about the same time and less cost I wouldn’t mind how they shipped them just as long as they got there.
My earlier point is they go out of their way to say they aren’t government, and say they’re self sustaining, yet have billions of dollars of debt they say if Congress doesn’t fix it for them...it kind of deflates their prior claims. If you run up a 5.5 billion debt and then beg Congress to save you from it, you’re not self sustaining.
