The Very Survival of Nonprofits Is Being Threatened
So the problems are real. But only in the through-the-looking-glass world of big government do people suggest that the solution to reduced sales is to actually raise prices!
Issa is right. Mostly. The USPS has to dramatically cut costs and will likely do so through the elimination of Saturday delivery, a reduction in the number of bulk-mail centers, and even the closing or relocating of thousands of neighborhood post offices. It needs to revamp the salary structure and pension benefits of postal workers. (There is no reason our tax dollars should afford them such largesse while workers in the private sector struggle for every dime.)
