Gets my vote. They should have cut deliveries years ago. First class mail volume is non-existent, and while people have become accustomed to instant gratification via daily deliveries of Amazon crap (et al), I'm pretty sure we'd all survive on twice weekly service. That would - roughly - cut letter carriers by 2/3rds. And if you want something delivered on a Sunday? You should pay out the ass for it like people used to for Special Deliver service. And the clerk positions at postal counters have become nothing more than a dei jobs programs for niggers - they export them as far as they will travel from their urban lairs in an effort to export more pain to the general populace. Fire them all and rehire competent staff.
That would be a start anyway.
Some of the people around me get phenomenal amounts of junk mail. The system would get overwhelmed in short order.
junk mail
And therein lies another part of the problem: USPS accepts boatloads of that crap and even gives it preferential pricing, to where it's inclusion becomes a justification for more deliveries whereas the revenue generated doesn't cover costs. Price it at - or closer to - first class rates, and see how that works. It's a self reinforcing/defeating matter.
I haven't looked into it, but I would assume junk mail and political crap makes up the bulk of the mail and therefore their budget.
Price it like any other mail. No special treatment. No one rides for free.
