    Whether it’s public or private has no real bearing on my point though. Water consumption is priced to cover the cost of delivering the water. That isn’t the case in international shipping, the more packages from China for the USPS, the more money they lose.

      the entire premise of your “point” is mind-bogglingly wrong. the USPS doesn’t make money, it costs money, just like any other org run by the government

      how much revenue is the US military raking in? or are they “operating at a loss” too?

      talking about ending the USPS because it’s “losing money” is the most bone-headed bullshit take on anything, ever. period
