    The Postal Service is dying....let it go. Another failed government funded entity. Color me shocked.

    Guess what the private sector does when they operate in the red? They change or go away. I wish i could continue to ask for more and more revenues without regard to my operation.

    Wages and Benefits not available to the private sector. Good luck with that business model.

    True, but the private sector doesn't have to fund retirement benefits through 2088, nor do other gov't agencies.

    "However, much of the service’s red ink comes from a 2006 law forcing it to pay $11 billion a year into future retiree health benefits, something no other agency does."

    Which TCU MBA decided to force them to fully fund retirement out 50 years up front?

    If we're going to start bashing people who eagerly await Saturday delivery of their Bed Bath and Beyond coupons, I'm out and you're gone

    the US Postal Service is a fucking antiquated joke. you want to witness lazy? go look at any postal office near any holiday. there could be a line of 900 people long and if there are 5 US Postal Workers working, somehow 4 of the 5 will have to take a lunch break at the same time. most dumbfucks look like they are on quaaludes 24/7, and those who don't are diva-like, overweight black women with 6" nails who also don't give a fuck about YOUR precious time.
