US Postmaster General: US Postal Service Needs Bailout

[JSojourner]

I simply cannot feature how the UPS loses money the way they have been raking it in, particularly with the advent of Priority Mail and eBay.  The right suggests the problem is that (unionized) postal workers are overpaid and underworked...an idea I find preposterous...but I admit, I base my idea solely on the handful of postal workers I know.  I am not sure what the left thinks is the cause of the problem. Graft and theft? 

I ship over a thousand items every year...every single one via USPS.  In nine years, not one damaged or missing package.  I receive hundreds, maybe thousands, as well.  Everything sent USPS has arrived safe and sound.  UPS and FedEx have both lost items sent to me or delivered damaged goods.  Never had DHL.

So I cannot figure it.
