  1. When all is said and done nothing to improve USPS debt laden financial condition will be accomplished. USPS revenue will continue to decline as the demand for products and services are not in demand. Expenses will continue to mount as the USPS spends daily than it takes in. Politicians, NAPS,League, Management, Unions and other irresponsible groups exert pressure to maintain the system as it is without regard to cost or need. The USPS needs have decreased with time and changing demographics. Small community post offices in the past had a need to provide service to a confined area: that is history.
    Sat. mail delivery at l time was the American way of life in keeping people and business connected. That is history as advancements in technology has changed the American way of staying in touch and connecting with each other and businesses. First class mail volume both personal and business has declined and will continue to do so as younger generation uses the INTERNET,TABLETS,SMART PHONES, FACEBOOK TO COMMUNICATE SOCIALLY AND BUSINESS. NEW APPS ARE BEING MADE AVAILABLE DAILY TO FURTHER THIS PROCESS. Children are computer savvy before starting to school and are educated via use of electronic communications This adds to further decline in USPS revenue as Bulk standard mail is leading product with low revenue generation . Parcel business highly competitive; Priority and EXPRESS has chance to increase market share with excellent advertising.
    Sat. mail delivery is comparable to black and white television as advanced technology has eliminated it as a thing of the past. The cost factor is continually increasing as fuel cost for 190,000+vehicles and personnel salaries are increasing. The monetary return for providing Sat. mail route is a total wasted cost. Sales papers, advertising mail are not time sensitive that are mailed for delivery on Fri. Sat.. Time sensitives are mailed for delivery in early part of week as sales are usually weekend time frames.
    USPS must have a new business model to maintain some form of existence.
