Somehow convince Congress to allow USPS to make its own business-like decisions, like how many days per week to deliver and how many retail outlets to maintain.<br /><br />If we could accomplish these 4, we would not need another 6, and could continue on, at least breaking even, indefinitely.Grannybunnynoreply@blogger.com
