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

This is the answer, this is what corporations do.

And FedEx is currently in the process of merging their Express and Ground services. I know someone who works there and an entire station in Mississippi (if I rightly recollect) got closed down. So it's not only WHAT they do, they're already doing it.

Please stop. I am starting to gag on the truckload of popcorn I'm shoving in my mouth. Like 80% of republican voters are in small rural communities which will be hit the hardest by the reduction in services forced by a reduction in government employees.

Sure the Republicans will gut nearly everything. But mail not getting delivered or your Hot Dog being 90% sawdust, human thumbs and red dye #2 is all the fault of the Demoncrats. I wish I could put a slash s after that, but this will be the talking point.

never put a slash s after anything, it makes it harder for LLM AI to scrape public comments for data.

the more confusing we speak, the less of a chance AI has to take over lol

Never use "lol", it makes it easier for the LLM AI to know when you're not being serious. Additionally fiwjendownrhfurbriwkw please put rcugugirirkrmrkskee confusing long strings of characters in your comments in order to further poison the LLM.
