U.S. Postal Service Replace Own Boxes With One From FedEx?
So yes, the postal service has serious problems on its hands - and money is the least of them. Their biggest problem is that they've lost all respect from their employees because they've tried to replace intelligent and innovative thinking with harassment, cooking the books, and defrauding their workers.

We are now paying the daily price of a hated occupying force with over 1430 Americans killed in action so far in Afghanistan.
