The U.S. Postal Service, facing insolvency unless it gets approval to delay a $5.5 billion payment for worker health benefits, will suspend contributions to an employee retirement account to save $800 million this year.
The U.S. Postal Service, facing insolvency without approval to delay a $5.5 billion payment for worker health benefits, will suspend contributions to an employee retirement account to save $800 million this year.
The Postal Service will stop paying employer contributions to the defined-benefit Federal Employees Retirement System, which covers about 85 percent of career postal workers, it said today in an e-mailed statement. The $115 million payment, made every other week, will stop on June 24.

USPS Loses $8B Per Year!!!!by Pensaring102 views
The Postal Service is the only Quasi federal agency who was mandated by the Postal regulatory commission headed by Republicans in congress to pre-fund 75 years of retirement health benefit funds. 59 billion dollars over !! No other federal agency was required to do this. guess what, the USPS no longer hires career employees. What the heck was the money for then? 59 billion dollar high jack to purposely kill the USPS and then have a fresh face and ask; Why are you guys behind?

No Way! I ship my products world wide and I now use only USPS.
UPS, Fedex and DHL do not honor their insurance policies. They all lost shipments
that were insured.
I sued all 3 and won in court. The judges all were furious at these "free market" carriers because
of this problem. It is standard practice for these creeps.
All 3 of those carriers have screwed up in customs as well.
USPS has the best price, they know how to do customs and they honor their insurance obligations.
