Because it's been tried, and quashed, in the past?
Because the USPS is a coercive monopoly?
Because the law forbids delivery of mail to private mail boxes by any entity than the USPS?
Because the government knows open private competition would cripple the USPS, forcing thousands of employees out of work?
Because the politicians enjoy their free postal service priveledge?
Who knows....
