USPS actually has assets ~ which can be sold or rented. Their borrowing authority is almost exhausted.

The US government, in general, has immense resources. They could base a currency on nothing but natural gas on public lands ~ and that'd be one of the world's strongest currencies ~ and could pay off the debt.

The taxpayers aren't giving USPS any money ~ at the same time the Congress is holding up on giving them approval to cut losses ~ at least $10 billion in annual costs can be eliminated by closing 28,000 rural and small urban postal facilities.

Write your congressman.

I’m all for closing post offices and selling USPS assets to make the taxpayers whole! Let’s start by selling, say, 100% of them...
