Maybe Ayn Rand should have written a book about the Post Office?
Sounds great that free enterprise should take over but I doubt many/most would be happy with that. Do you actually believe another provider could backfill mail service for remotely the same cost?
The PO vehicle fleet is complex enough to scare away most, not to mention the complex machines and systems. UPS has great tech for parcel shipments/processing, a little different than sorting mail at high volume.
Tons of people have already been cut and I suspect more cuts are coming. How do they cut people that have a current contract? New terms when the contract is up but you cant do that at the drop of a hat. Besides, the mail carriers I know actually do bust ass and earn their keep.
