Do you like your United States Postal Service? If so, we have a big problem!
In Short: The USPS may close down offices and discontinue certain services in certain areas (it looks like places such as, y'know, places where public transportation is a big thing. So think Flint/Detroit. y'know, POVERTY STRICKEN AREAS WHUT?) and they aren't even telling us! And who would be doing the mail then? Well, that would be our lovely lowest bidding contractors (think tiny versions of UPS/FEDEX/Whathaveyou.)
We have 60 days (yep, two months, 8 weeks!) until this all goes down, with only a 10 day input period from the public--who they are not obligated to inform, btw.
Wanna know more, from a much more informed person than I? Head on over tonaamah-darling for all the pertinent links.

Even if you don't like the USPS, and think it should change, well good on ya! But if they're willing to hide something this big from us, what else are they hiding until its to late?
And for what its worth, I happen to think my personal mail is a pretty big fucking deal, TYVM
