[QUOTE="Buffaloaf, post: 580015, member: 20890"] A minor nitpick; I believe that USPS is actually privatized, they simply have an Antitrust expemption from the federal government. No one else is allowed to deliver "Mail." *I believe they are actually self-supporting by their own profits (from years past, obviously). Due to having a monopoly over "mail", they've been able to get away with not managing their company well and still have profits. With mail down so much, they are finally seeing red years and it's becoming a big issue.* Their antitrust exemption is the reason why they need Congresses permission in order to make any changes to how they deliver mail. This is why the government is involved with them -- and also why they get involved with football, baseball, etc...they all have an government granted antitrust exemption. Part in * is speculation / assumption...I have not looked up USPS profits / losses to know for sure if this is fact. [/QUOTE]
