This may very well be a way to intentionally hurt or change USPS for the benefit of UPS and FedEx, or some other business interest (via corporate lobbyists). Or is being done for leverage.
Because it's the only way this all makes sense.
And contrary to popular belief that the people in charge are idiots that lack common sense, there is almost always a much deeper and well-thought-out strategy and story behind these types of situations.
On the other hand ... this could be afterall rather simple, and the media is making it out to be something it's not. That happens often too.
- jellicle 14y agoI don't believe it's really campaign to help UPS or Fedex, but mostly a campaign to hurt the half million unionized employees of USPS. Congressman Issa is a Republican who has sworn jihad against unions. He hates unions with a passion usually reserved for people who run over your dog. So it's not really that he's a corrupt politician trying to get $$$ for his corporate supporters, it's rather that he's a ideologue. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/04/04/darrell-issa-labor-website-unions_n_1403090.html http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/04/04/darrell-issa-labor-...
