How shitty has these operation been run??


They are not allowed to get more efficient.

They are beholden to congress for every damn little thing. If they were allowed to close a ton of tiny post offices and reduce delivery frequency in rural areas, they could do MUCH better.

Dont blame the guys running it, blame your duly elected representatives.

Don't forget the political pressure to keep the cost of a stamp artificially low. If private companies were allowed to deliver to mailboxes, I guarantee you they'd charge more than 46 cents for a first class letter.
