All part of the plan. Republicans intentionally screw with government services to make them look bad and to pave way for privatization. All just to become richer.

all they need is a democratically controlled congress that fixes a few issues legislatively
it's not that big of a problem, even in it's present form it'll be ok. so long as the GOP doesn't fuck it over anymore, which I don't see happening anytime soon given the midterms

Imagine actually believing this

Organization with massive infrastructure and fixed costs experiences a loss in the face of decreasing utilization?

Must be the Republicans

Because they can't actually keep up with the amount of mail being sent these days, and neither can UPS/FedEx/etc.

This. Let's force all 500 fortune companies to have the same pension rules as the Post Office and see how long they last.
