USPS makes money on package delivery Navy1960. In fact, they contract with FedEx to move a lot of it around. UPS didn't give them as good a deal. USPS is also cheaper in many cases, so you might want to rethink your suggestion.
There is no downside to letting the post office go bankrupt and selling off the assets. FedEX and UPS will pick up the slack and new competition may emerge to help fill the vacuum.
Is there any good reason whatsoever for bailing out the Post Office?

Ever wonder why FedEx and UPS don't have a booming letter delivery service? I'm sure things will be fine for you in the big city, but the postal service still plays a role in rural life. In short, your suggestion is flawed in principle.

Then rural America will have to pay the market cost of letter service. This is not an insurmountable obstacle for anyone because there are always electronic alternatives to snail mail.
Local storefront services will emerge that will send E-mail to the city or town where it will be printed out and delivered by truck. Innovation WILL replace the Post office.
By your logic, highways should be funded by cities, since it connects them for commerce.

I'm going to say that's because they would have to compete with an organization backed by taxpayer dollars. What rational company would choose to compete with a government run near monopoly on letter delivery? That would be crazy.

States actually...but cities are free to build roads too. There is nothing in the Constitution granting the federal government authority to build roads. This is why the interstate highways built in the 50s/60s that ended Route 66, supported Detroit and our reliance on oil and unfairly penalized the airline industry was funded through the Pentagon. No enumerated power for roads. It's a state issue.

No, you were suggesting cost shifting. There are federal gasoline taxes correct?

Article I, Section 8, Clause 7 of the United States Constitution, known as the Postal Clause or the Postal Power, empowers Congress "To establish Post Offices and post Roads".
While the post office does have it's problems, it does seem that rather than getting rid of the Post Office, it would make more sense given the fact that UPS and FED-EX do not have a traditional mail service or cover a lot of rural areas that depend on this service it would make more sense for Congress to exercise it's powers under the Constitution to actually fix the problem. As a thought here, one would think that USPS would and could contract a lot of its package delivery to the above mentioned companies reducing costs with little impact and leave open traditional Post Offices . I for one would never be in favor if simply saying the best solution is to get rid of something because we are unable to or unwilling to fix it.
Why are you here? ..... Oh yeah.why do you people hate the founders ?
