SAY NO! The US Postal Service is more efficient than FEDEX & UPS yet Trump wants to privatize it
Donald Trump and his cabal of billionaire parasites are discussing privatizing the U.S. Postal Service. The USPS is the most efficient delivery service and is cheaper than FedEx and UPS.
The US Postal Service is more efficient than FEDEX & UPS
Summary
The United States Postal Service (USPS) remains an essential public institution, offering unmatched efficiency and universal service to all Americans, regardless of geography. Despite its proven success, Donald Trump and corporate interests seek to privatize the USPS, aiming to profit off its infrastructure while undermining affordable mail delivery for the public.
Unmatched Reach: USPS delivers to every address in the U.S., including remote and rural areas private carriers refuse to serve.
Private Sector Reliance: FedEx and UPS rely on USPS for “last-mile” delivery, proving its efficiency where others fail.
Innovation: USPS pioneered mail tracking, ZIP codes, and delivery systems, now used by private companies.
Financial Manipulation: Artificial financial burdens, like pre-funding retiree benefits, create the illusion of USPS losses.
Labor Standards: USPS workers earn fair wages and benefits, unlike workers in profit-driven private companies.
The USPS represents a cornerstone of public infrastructure, providing every American with affordable and universal mail service. Its efficiency, innovation, and commitment to workers’ rights threaten private corporations that prioritize profits over people. Privatization schemes are a deliberate attack on this public good, aimed at dismantling a service that works for all while funneling wealth to the elite. Protecting the USPS is essential for equity, accessibility, and a democracy that serves everyone.
