They actually expect somebody to believe this? If true, they just revealed why the USPS is in trouble... they are STUPID and CAN'T run a business.

They did this because the Congress passed legislation mandating it. The USPS been saying all along that the mandate was too much and unnecessary. This was congress' fault, not the USPS.
