The whole ‘run government like a business’ idea usually entails running it into the ground. It’s just a more diplomatic way to express wanting to remove social services from people.

Exactly. The USPS should have pivoted from daily physical mail delivery to telecommunications services by the 1920s. The breakup of AT&T’s monopoly in the 1980s made the Internet possible; we could have had the internet 30-40 years earlier if we had pushed the USPS into telephone.
