USPS Needs More Time
A soaring number of appeals is slowing the Postal Service's plans to close thousands of small post offices. Auditors said appeals rose from just six two-years ago to 126 by May of this year. More than one in every five closures faced appeal and a long, drawn-out process. Both the Postal Service and the Postal Regulatory Commission are spending more time and money on appeals. The Postal Service inspector general said the rise caught USPS lawyers off guard. It said they need more resources to handle the rising workload. The Postal Service is planning to contract out the work.

I mailed a letter a few months ago , 3 people served me at the counter.USPS is no longer needed.
They are not productive and should be closed completely.
How do you like this change? Good ain't it you obamie lovers.
I run a business locally and barely get my mail on a daily basis. Every day there is another carrier on duty - not like the good ole days where you had the same carrier from year to year. But yet the price of postage goes up and I can't even get my mail delivered. Easier to just email anymore or do electronic payments - forget the post office.
Get rid of USPS and have all the employees start their own, employee owned company?
