USPS sucks dick and that's why we love them

They have very little flexibility on resources & virtually zero funding for anything beyond implementing the services they offer. The federal government has had to subsidize them for a while now as they can't even flip a profit. God bless this mandated shit show of a service. Their incompetence gives me comfort, and I'm pretty sure because they're a government service the 4th amendment comes into play. I don't know how or why vendors from the SR days offered UPS and FedEx shipping. They can do anything they want to their packages, while USPS needs probable cause. Constitution hooking us tf up

That's incorrect. USPS pays for itself and turns a profit. Congress has been borrowing from that profit for decades to pay for tax cuts and wars, leaving USPS with millions of dollars in unpaid liabilities. The efficiency of the post office is incredible, and it definitely doesn't need a bailout.

Dude, it's because we're fuckin' 'Murca. We'd rather spend all of our funding on weapons and military shit to look cool, but can't provide free healthcare for our citizens and can't for the life of us provide funding for our Federal mail service. We like slanging our big ass military dick around.

USPS was forced to 'pre-pay' the pensions and healthcare obligations of all it's employees. This is insane accounting that virtually no other organization, public or private, has to do. That they can stay afloat at all is a testament to how well managed and competent the postal service is.

This was done in 2006 in a clear attempt by the GOP to undermine the USPS, and eventually privatize.

Why do clueless idiots like OP get so many upvotes? USPS's financial situation has nothing to do with the 4th amendment, and they are self-sufficient and not funded by the treasury at all. Plus they are cheaper and have faster shipping times then UPS or Fedex.

It's actually a really amazing shipping service, so fuck off 👌

I can get packages from 2000 miles away in 3 days...for like 6 bucks. USPS is highly efficient, you only see the front end, which is a totally separate entity.
