The only reason that is true (IF it is) is because an agenda-driven Congress politicizing things.
Correct. People are bad-mouthing the USPS for not doing something the USPS doesn't even claim to do. What is that called? Setting up a straw man to knock it down?
This is closer to the truth.
Also close to the truth, or, indeed, the truth.
Same here, though once I received a package very late, but was no big deal, thankfully.
Amen. I've had two sisters and at least two uncles work for the USPS. And my letter carrier is the sweetest lady in the world.
If you want postal nightmares and something real to sit around and whine about, send something overseas via FedEx or UPS, but get ready to mortgage your home, or just deal with foreign postal systems. You'll come to your senses about the USA's USPS in a hurry.
