Dear Editor,

It is no surprise to me that the U.S. Postal Service is going broke and begging for more taxpayer dollars.

They couldn’t get out Monday to do their job due to the weather. But many others did.

UPS and FEDX made their rounds. I know this because they delivered to my house. I wonder why they are profitable? How can they do it when a government agency can’t? Tuesday was the same story. No mail service, but UPS and FEDX ran.

I do so pity (cynically) the baby who cries with a warm bottle in its drooling mouth!
