Postmaster
General Patrick Donahoe attempted to propose a free market solution to keep the
USPS soluble, but was quickly rejected for many reasons amongst them where:
·
Closing 3,700
Locations
·
Consolidating
hundreds of distribution centers
This proposal was an unfortunate necessity to stay soluble. Instead, politicians rejected it to foot the
bill to the American people who obviously do not utilize their services as they
once did. We pay the Post Office if we
use them or not. Does that make sense?
Common Sense says: That
does not make any sense on any level to anyone who has a level of basic business knowledge.
I apologize to the hundreds of thousands of hard working postal
service works that could possibly be affected by this solution. But there are solutions to relieving people
of work as well. Early retirement is a
possible solution for a percentage of employees. Which is occurring already.
When large corporations down size, it is no
easy task but out of survival instinct to remain afloat and continue supporting
more employees than released, a select few are let go. How employees are selected to be released is
a per company decision, my guess they are going to look at cost of employee vs.
output of employee work.
The United States Postal Service is a prime example of why the federal
government should not be in the market place.
Many federal branches if released from government control would
flourish. While the big government types
stay in power, they will keep their strangle hold on as much as they can for as
long as they can.
Who wants the USPS to become a success to our economy rather than
a drag? How do we make it a
success?
