There isn't a competing service and I see value in being able to send a letter anywhere in the US for less than $0.50. - TWuG Feb 6, 06:01 5
- That's the problem. You can't send a letter for 50 cents. The business model doesn't work. -- nm - ty97 Feb 6, 06:13 4
  - seems to work for Canada Post, and there's no way CP has an easier delivery task. -- nm - Reagen Feb 6, 06:32 2
    - I don't know how Canada does it, but it clearly is not sustainable in the US (see: 15.9 billion loss) -- nm - ty97 Feb 6, 06:36 1
      - see mafic's post above. it's the biggest chunk of it. -- nm - Reagen Feb 6, 06:38
  - I don't think the issue is with getting a letter from A to B for $0.50 - TWuG Feb 6, 06:21
