READER’S EDITORIAL: THE U.S. POSTAL SERVICE: NECESSITY FOR THE NATION

By Bonnie Burns Price, Ph.D.

 
 
“Is it possible that Congress is trying to put the USPS out of business, so FedEx and UPS can overcharge the citizenry for privatized service?... Do you want rural post offices that are the center of regional communities to go out of business because they are not profitable for the private delivery services? Do you want to pay high cost, non-union, private contractors $10 to deliver a letter because it’s being sent to a remote, rural area, if it can be delivered at all? ” – Bonnie Burns
