The U.S. Constitution is a flawed document, with five really bad clauses that are the cause of most of our troubles. Another bad clause, though less dangerous, is the one that allows Congress to establish post offices and post roads.
It's time to override that clause with a Constitutional amendment and end government involvement of the mail. In 2008, the inefficient Postal Service lost $2.8 billion. It must be given help (a bailout) to stay in business.
Privatize the Postal Service by selling it off to UPS, DHL, Airborne, Fed Ex, and any other company that wants a piece. The private sector, with its own money at risk, will do a much better job. The competition will drive costs down and improve service.
Sorry James Madison, Ben Franklin and the rest of the framers, you got this one wrong too.
