    And it’s not like private businesses offer service to the remote parts of the country. I find it odd how you can mandate it serves every address and has to be profitable. Those two things do not mesh. If you want it profitable it well drop serving every address.

      That’s not an acceptable option either. Everyone should have access to mail service and as the private services aren’t obliged to provide it, the federal system needs to step up.

      Public services are there to serve the public, not to turn a profit. It’s this expectation of profitability that needs to change.
