Yes,its a mess.However can the government correct it?Obama yesterday actually said UPS and FED EX compete with the post office and do fine ,as a reason why a public option wont put private companies out of buisiness.The problem there is,the post office has lost 7 billion each of the last two years.If Obama thinks thats an example of the government showing an ability to run or even oversee anything he might want to look again and use a better example.
