who got reductions and rate deals will not, in the current meltdown, accept higher above inflation rates. That is what is making this disaster so perfect. The long term move to e-mail will accelerate and we will go the way of fossil fuels much more swiftly, depriving those caught deprived of technology from their mail.
The Post Office is a huge human/paper nationwide network with areas of high profits and rural areas operating at a loss. If the networks fails, it implodes. A siege mentality may be one description, with closings, consolidations growing in number even before this. ironically, the more employment is reduced the fewer workers eventually affected by the collapse. The main plan seems to be to leak the whole system to private corporations to flog the dinosaur for the waning profits while it is still needed.
