US Postal Service is struggling to stay solvent.

[Swampy]

It has exhausted its borrowing limit and has only four days' cash on hand.

Labor costs have grown to 80 percent of expenses, even after 280,000 jobs were cut since 2000, as mail volume has dropped 26 percent from its peak six years ago.

Anyone see an obvious solution? ;D

Another Union victory!

I'm guessing that fedEx and UPS aren't unionized. They vertainly are far more efficient.

However, saying that reminds me that every summer I go to SW CO for four months and have my mail forwarded by USPS and they do an outstanding job.
