you are correct.

so what do you guys think would be a solution to the whole Postal Service cost effectiveness solution?

I think that they should get into the internet business.

They hook you up with internet service, and it costs 0$ per month

you get unlimited, unrestricted browsing time, and each e mail you send costs you $0.30. every e mail you receive from a non USPS.com e mail domain will cost you $0.05

at the end of the monthly billing cycle you pay the total of all sent and received e mails at the above mentioned rates.

i think the individual costs under that plan would be reasonable
