Postal Service offers $15,000 buyouts to 45,000 mail handlers.
Just lay them off and save the money,oh wait its the gov.

Also, businesses that are struggling find ways to cuts costs in order to stay alive.

There would be all sorts of ways to cut costs short of shutting down facilities. But this is quasi-government and they do not think outside of the box.
They have 28,000 unnecessary facilities. McDonald’s has 12,000 facilities in the US.
