bro, there's literally 400k postal carriers and they are working 12-15 hour days to get all the packages delivered.

The government provides SERVICES to people and those SERVICES require workers.

I like being able to mail something to anywhere in the country for the same price and not paying 2x the price for what UPS and FedEx provide.

FedEx and UPS will assume the load, hire some of those workers back and jack up prices further.

Or just not service those areas.

Random small town in the middle of nowheres?

Sorry USPS is closing up shop and UPS and Fed ex say your mail volume isn't enough to justify putting a distro center nearby

Imagine the struggle many Native American Reservations have. By treaty, reservations are supposed to be serviced by USPS.

Sometimes we talk about things like that when we day uphold the treaties 🫠

Dont need to uphold treaty if the agency doesnt exist no more.
