Specifically, what is it that makes you think the USPS is in such bad shape? That they ran a 4% deficit last year? I bet many if not most of the "private model" companies in the country wish that their deficits were only 4%.

Would you be happier if the USPS followed your private model scenario, so you could pay $52.71 to mail a package instead of $4.85?
