The Year That Lies Ahead
"Perhaps Congress should ask postal management and the governors what they intend to do to help ensure the Postal Service will thrive (let alone just survive) in the challenging times that lay ahead. After all, why pour money into an institution that already has demonstrated that the manner in which it's managed the nation's postal system for well over two centuries no longer is viable? It's time, I would think, that the governors and management be required to show they know how to shepherd the nation's postal system in a more financially viable and prudent way." -

Detroit: Postal Service set for big shift
"People used to getting mail from the same postal carrier at the same time each day may be in for a surprise. Across metro Detroit and the nation, the U.S. Postal Service plans this month and in February to shift thousands of carriers and delivery times as a cost-saving measure. It may be the largest single batch of such changes in Postal Service history, said Dan Orton, spokesman for post offices in Macomb, Oakland, St. Clair and other counties." -

Forget dead letters; worry about a dead USPS
"Top officials of the U.S. Postal Service and the American Postal Workers Union are monitoring the serious mail problems in Philadelphia. But William Burrus, national president of the APWU, warned of an even worse problem on the horizon than "just the delay of the mail." With a nearly $3 billion loss in fiscal '08, and a projected deficit of up to $5 billion in the current year, the USPS is "close to not being able to sustain a national postal-service system to the public," Burrus said." -
