And just after your organization comes up with the money to pay for the US Postal Services’ lack of funding, it might just happen.

USPS has the worst of all possible worlds; control by the Congress of the US and only permitted to charge what they permit and required to provide a level of service those rates can’t cover. The USPS has not directly received taxpayer-dollars since the early 1980s with the exception of subsidies for costs associated with the disabled and overseas voters.

And part of those costs are paying 50 years in advance the costs of retiree's health costs for the Unionized workers Eugene/Springfield Solidarity Network-Jobs With Justice are shilling for in this letter. Those payments are at the rate of $5.5 billion per year.
