Start by eliminating the USPS monopoly on letter mail, and remove all lingering ties to the federal gov’t, so USPS is completely standalone and so there can be competition. Then wire remote control cattle prods to all 535 members of Congress and zap anyone who even thinks the phrase “too big to fail”. Let the free market work and the USPS will either vanish or it will reinvent itself into something new and sustainable. As long as gummint stays the hell out of it.
Great ideer (as are all ideers on FR.) Now go implement it. We’re waiting holding our collective breath.
