I find it funny that their first thought is how to "raise revenue" instead of how to bust this fat, bloated union and the insane contract fluff in order to bring their operating expenses inline with reality.

Looks like the Dems are about to lose another chunk of their taxpayer subsidized voter base.

It seems like things would be just as well off if the USPS went to home delivery on M-W-F only. That would cut vehicle use by half and greatly reduce much of the labor payroll.

To prevent the job from becoming a total part time slot, the delivery staff could work the rest of their 40 hour week doing other tasks at the P.O. at a reduced rate, maybe even minimum wage just to keep their insurance in effect.

So, "taxpayer subsidized" is how much money?

You have the US government in hock to the USPS for over $100 billion, and who is subsidizing what?

Let's see numbers, facts, references.
