U.S. Postal Service in danger

According to a recent article in the New York Times, the U.S. Postal Service is in danger of having to shut down this winter. To save money, some of the proposed solutions include closing some post offices, eliminating Saturday delivery and laying off employees.

Have the USPS problems affected your local post office(s)? How? What do you think of the problem and proposed solutions?

Chime in with your ideas today!

I would rather see an end to Saturday delivery than the closing of more Post Offices. No local ones here have been affected.

No closings here, but I would rather see them make deeper cuts right off. Say go to mail delivery M-W-F or just T-Th. I think that's better than having them come back in a few years and saying - well we need to cut more and I think it's better than loosing it altogether.
