It is a reference to the movie Deliverance where Burt Reynolds and his camping companions are set upon by deranged hillbillies.Fibonacci wrote:I'm new on this forum. Would one of you mind explaining the "banjo music" reference to me?

What if I set out a "Private Delivery Company" box? And what about those doors with slots in them? Can they push stuff through those?
Short answer: no. In 1979 they decided to allow for "emergency" deliveries of letters by private carriers, but that is pretty much it. It is illegal.

Until about four years ago the US Postal Service was putting into the US Treasury from postage collected One Billion dollars a year. That's a Billion dollars the tax payer didn't have to be taxed. Congress mandated the US Postal Service prefund retirement to the tune of 23 Billion dollars a year until a limit of about 75 billion was reached. Name one other company, entity, or organization that could make a profit under those conditions. If that mandate was removed the US Postal Service would immediately become profitable again. The Postal Service is a bloated beaurecratic system and does need to be trimmed but try to send written communications from any other organization for .43 cents to McCarthy, Alaska from any other part of the US for that cost.
Right, but you ignored the meat of his post, which is that the only reason they have any success at all is because the federal government has made it illegal for other companies to do what they do.
FedEx can't compete on delivering mail to your mailbox for .43 cents because it is against the law for them to even try.
