As some wag tweeted, "I'm sure if they keep reducing service and raising prices, the U.S. Postal Service will be back on top in no time."U really think players are going to duke without being paid over Kentucky?--Gilbert Arenas, 9/12/19

I'm fine with that, but a lot of people may miss it.
Physical mail is just so behind the times for general communication. If it's not a delivery, it's almost useless these days.

It is funny b/c cutting service and raising prices simultaneously is a death blow to anyone but government, but I'm surprised it didn't end decades ago. Maybe I'm out of the loop but I see no real benefit for it. Almost nothing goes snail mail that is on such a tight time frame you need it on the weekend.

The postal unions will fight this tooth and nail. Thats what unions do. This is a money saving effort and really will have minimal effect on the average person however those who deliver mail on Sat will not go down without a fight.
