@FknHannu For what it is worth, the USPS was sabotaged by R led congress requiring pre-funding pensions for 75 years into the future, a crushing obligation no other organization in the world is required to maintain. It is most of the reason they always seem to be unprofitable just as planned.

@BlakeGirardot @FknHannu Yes, this. I suspect at this point postal workers' pensions are pre-funded way beyond most peoples', and will not suffer if the Post Office doesn't add additional funds for a few years.
