It’s because of the greedy USPS unions. You are paying for their inflated salaries (which just stuff the pockets of their union leaders), theirs golden pensions, and Cadillac health cares. If we could just privatize it, the market will push the prices down because of competition.
/s btw
Don't forget wasteful government intervention limiting what the USPS can charge, and making it so it can take days for packages to make the trek across the continent, without even having the decency to amass stupendous profit margins.
