Hey! I work for the US Postal Service!

I'm conflicted about this because the founding fathers felt it was a critical enough element to national infrustructure to operate under the government.

Although I think we need to be severely audited and cut the waste.

True, it wasn't a feasible free market enterprise back then. However, I'm also conflicted because the things that might enter the country nowadays might need federal scrutiny. I guess I'd like to see the post office out of all domestic but have authority over all incoming international mail...problem is that they would find a way to soak us just as bad on that.

People have competed with the Postal Service before. That's how Wells Fargo got its start.
