Having been in the real world before cell phones displaced me, I know USPS can be blind to this. The congressional mandate seems to be strong; years and years the demise and privitization has been predicted. A Trump action could make change occur, but Russia and his ego may never get it on the radar. When I say there is absolutely 0 organizational memory/ability to think like a for profit organization, that would be an understatement. Or they are quite bad about comminicating such. To find ways to use the investments is logical. To inspire an organization to care about customer service is difficult. I suggested that the latest budget include a line "deliveries will be made by a human" or some such language; to get it in now so it becomes legacy like 6 day delivery. But nobody even thinks about disruption. Kind of sad, actually. If driverless cars really do become commonplace, the privitization of now-public roads, IMO, would come quickly. That may be the straw that breaks the Postal back. As far as pensions, only the old timers have one. Most, like me, have the federal Thrift savings....
