What is driving the Post Office's increased costs?
What many people fail to unerstand is that a business gets to choose its level of service such as service area and services. Generally, government does not.

As a consequence, it must accept certain inefficiencies that businesses reject. In both cases, there are revenue and cost outcomes.
