Question about cuts to USPS [View all]
Is there any way to trace where the genesis for the idea for cuts to the United States Postal Service are actually coming from? Are they actually ficically need cuts or is this generated by lobbyists? Anyone know? Because I'm wondering if this is motivated by the commercial shippers who would benefit from eliminating the USPS and its competitive pricing. If you get the USPS out of the way, couldn't you, as a commercial shipper, have more control and ability to raise your prices?
I'm getting a feeling of deja vu with this. It seems very similar for the push to privatize social security where the commercial investing firms would stand to receive all that money.
Do I have a point here or do I just not understand where the actual call for the cuts is from?
