Hmm ~ all great ideas ~ but my goodness MOST postal employees don't work as carriers. There are distribution clerks, window clerks, supervisors, specialists of all kinds (keeping the machinery working), management, etc.

Whacking the carrier craft in two would probably do two things ~ reduce the workforce by about 1/5 AND PO every blue haired old lady in the nation.

Lotsa luck.

yes, but raise the price of junk mail & the total volume will drop, reducing the number of workers needed.
