Post office beats UPS and FedEx for packages
UPS and FedEx get government subsidies in the form of the interstate high way system, US federal highways, state highways and county and city roads. They also enjoy government services in air-traffic control. So the idea that UPS and FedEx are totally private and get no help from the taxpayers is false. They can also enjoy taxpayer funded courts to help settle disputes they have and tax-payer supported snow plows on roads. So once again they are also parasites.
Do you not understand that public money to build roads and bridges must come from the private sector first, (i,e, corporate, individual, gasoline and sales taxes)? The USPS lost $16 billion in 2013 and should have been shuttered long ago. Why are basic economics so cumbersome for the left?
