The 2006 bill they talk about was passed with almost unanimous support due to the post office showing a profit that year of around 6 billion dollars. Also about this time email and social media web sites were starting to become more popular. Over the next few years text messaging and other forms of instant messaging came along. During this same time period online bill pay was growing more popular also. All this cut into the first class mail and those profits. Since the congress has ignored this growing problem they are the most to blame.

I haul mail cross country and I believe it because I’m a outside carrier and they paying us cheaper what they can pay their driver🤔

It’s not losing money it costs money its like saying the military loses money

wow THANK YOU USPS YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING ! THANK YOU FOR SERVING THE AMERICAN PEOPLE

They made it seem like they lost the money! They didn’t make the 26 billion like they did prior

All post office is good for today is delivering junk mail and Amazon crap!

Sadly we no longer need the postal services any more. It’s an out dated system that really didn’t keep up with time..

Good idea. Let's fully prioritize the post office!... now your on board CNN

Its probably in the dumpsters or....etc....

Yikes

Woww....75yrs?? That's totally unnecessary

Save the post office!

Let me guess - Amazon , FedEx and etc

UPS is next haha

I'm just here for the civilized discussion in the comments.

And they steal your package too.

Good. I wait for love from you 💝💖

Really nice 👌 😍💋 💝💖❤️

I'm Single 😍😥

The Post Office's all-inclusive method is killing them . Darwin, CA for example is on edge of Death Valley and has a reported 34 residents. Yet, they operate a Post Office anyway. This makes me think that on a location basis, I bet there are hundreds, if not thousands, of locations that individually chalk up negative incomes. USPS focuses on including all people and locations, even those with significant loss. If there are 1000 locations each costing say 100,000 loss per year (rent, upkeep, bills, employees, etc.) then that's 100 million loss in itself. TBH if Darwin, CA didn't have a Post Office for their 34 residents they would probably move back to the city. Losing $4.93 billion last year is an epic failure in itself. Trump recognized this and talked hella smack, yet in his 4 years he did not successfully make any changes to effect USPS long-term growth (in order to stop losing money).

I'm single 😥😥😥😥😥

Anyone want to be my Boyfriend 😍💋 💝💖♥️❤️
