I believe at one time the US Postal Service sponsored cycling. Well they
sure have been on my bad list as of late. Seems things are much slower
than they ever were and shoddy.
 
I order a set of different guitar strings from a place in Traverse City
Michigan. That is about 8 hour drive from here. Priority mailed out
02/05/25. I got the package today and yes the weather was bad they said
it would be delay. It sat in at the post office in my town for 5 days.
It showed up with a plastic bag around the mailing envelop and note of
package damage. There was nothing in the package and only one set of the
4 string sets I ordered in the plastic bag sealing it all with apology.
 
The place is going to send out the remaining strings but I wonder if
they file a claim with the post office. Frankly probably not worth the
effort. To top that off it took 21 days in December for a letter of mine
to get to Philadelphia Pennsylvania.
 
Maybe Trump will look  into that too they need something done. Frankly
quite allowing junk mail and get the act together.

If it’s not funded by government ie has to fund its self, then services
will always come 2nd to profitability, ie if one wants no or low junk mail,
and for it to be run as service then will need some government funding. EX
postie in UK which has been privatised and now a commercial company with
totally expected results ie worsening service.

Can’t see Trump wanting to fund it somehow!
