The USPS is Bleeding Green

The NY Times has a great article on the bleak future facing the US Postal Service, a topic I have tackled before.

While the US Postal Service (and the reporters covering it) focuses on doom and gloom and how mail is dead, the Swiss post service is adapting. There are many companies, like Zumbox and Earth Class Mail, getting in the game and providing forward thinking solutions. Now the question is: will the USPS change or continue to turn money into nothing (because like legends, government funded entities never really die)?

ps — sorry for loosely quoting the sandlot for cynical purposes but like a true member of gen y, pop culture constantly explodes forth from my mind.
