The service at the local office sucks but that isn't the main issue. There is just less mail being sent. IMO, the main problem with USPS is they have no control over what they can charge, when they are open, what services they offer... The USA needs to suck it up and either subsidize the P.O. (Heck we subsidize farmers, the milk industry, even the oil industry) or release the regulations and allow them to do what it takes to be profitable or fund it as a neccesity.
Go private? I don't think we can do that. The mail is a main part of our infastructure.
Or we could pass ObamaPostage?
I agree completely, but the original question did not have any clauses in it regarding legality or fairness. Maybe I should have used green text.
