I hope they are able to work out some kind of solution. I personally have a number of relatives who are employed by the USPS or have been in the past (this is where my dad's retirement check comes from) and, as the second-largest civilian employer behind Wal-Mart, I cannot imagine just how many lives or businesses (especially small businesses) will be negatively affected were they to completely tank.
No, I truly hope it never happens, but there is a growing movement of pundits saying it should.
Considering that you can still get a letter from point a to point b in three days for less than a half a buck, it's not a bad service.
And yes, it is going up, but that can mostly be pinned on OIL prices, just like the hikes in groceries and all the other stuff we buy.
