“So you are getting a good deal that the rest of us are paying for.”

I don’t understand your meaning. Why are you paying yet I am not? We spend thousands of dollars with the post office every year - through business and personally. We use the system and we spend our money to support it.

Its also important to remember that the USPS can’t raise their rates to keep up with fuel costs. They face legal hurdles that FedEx doesn’t have. It might take a year for the postal service to get approval for a rate hike when UPS, FedEx and others simply raise their rates as needed.

There are union issues at play but the fact that UPS gets by with union employees (teamsters) tells me that the postal service problems aren’t the sole fault of unions.
