If somebody wants to send a bill or a legal document to farmer John they can pay $5 to do it. The clowns sending junk mail for $.05/piece can get bent.
The military is part of the government; the USPS despite having United States in the name is not part of the government neither is FEDERAL express or the FEDERAL reserve. Hence they need to make profits or eventually go out of business.
No where except the secret is in many rural areas and even populated areas it’s not uncommon for UPS and Fedex to have the postal service do their last mile.
