@Jefgg I didn't make any claim or take a stance. I gave the purpose of the Marketing Campaign based on research. You're entitled to your opinion. Makes no diff to me.
Does anybody have the United States Postal Service commercial where a couple are relaxing at the beach and run up to the water and a voiceover says, "Or else your vacation will go down the drain." with a whirlpool withdrawing all the water from the ocean?
It's from August 1988, Product and Services spot for the "We Deliver" campaign. This was aimed to stimulate growth since competitors at that time, FedEx and UPS, were growing at 20% and the postal service only grew 2%. The perception was the USPS was not reliable.
But where oh where can I find that awesome USPS commercial set to the Carly Simon song "Let the River Run" - it was similar to post 9/11 ads for the airlines, a patriotic statement of our resilience in the face of threats - the USPS motto was displayed line by line throughout.

USPS is goin' down...Remember when the USPS had a cycling team with Lance Armstrong? I bet they wish they had that money back : (

@edacumos The U.S. Postal Service is NOT reliable. What neighborhood in fantasyland do you reside?
