And again, it bears repeating; the USPS is NOT a for-profit endeavor, it is a national social service. It is charged by Congress with making mail service available to every corner of the nation, no matter how inefficient, at a uniform cost. If Congress sees fit to alter the nature of mail service to maximize efficiency, don't be surprised if it costs fifty cents to send a letter from LA to NY in a few days and five bucks to send one from Wyoming to North Dakota in two weeks.
