One thing that made America great is the U.S. post service. The ability for the average American to send and receive mail at a very low cost helped make our country great. This could be in jeopardy soon as the service is running low on cash. The high cost of labor has drained the service.
Falling revenues are another big problem. With many people now paying bills online and competition from other places, total mail volume is down. We are all looking to the congress to help this service survive for a few more years.
