USPS privatization again under consideration, Trump says
“A privatized Postal Service would have a substantially lower cost structure, be able to adapt to changing customer needs and make business decisions free from political interference, and have access to private capital markets to fund operational improvements without burdening taxpayers,” the White House said in its 2018 proposal. “The private operation would be incentivized to innovate and improve services to Americans in every community.”
It suggested a privatized mailing entity would be able to reduce services, raise rates and
offer less generous pay and benefits to its employees.
I love it already!
Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., who next year is set to take over the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee that oversees USPS, recently told DeJoy he should stop hiring government employees and instead contract out new staff. Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., who chairs the House Oversight and Accountability Committee,
told DeJoy last week that there could be some major reforms coming in the Trump administration and those may or may not be advantageous to the Postal Service.
It's coming dummy
