I note in your last two posts, axegrinder, that you are against the insurance company large profits, yet are also against amtrack and other agencies running on shoestring budgets (close to bankruptcy).

After reading your first post I thought you wanted the insurance companies run with little to no profit, but you kind of threw me in the second post when you complained that government controlled entities are run that way..

I understand your concerns, as many of us do, but it seemed slightly contradictory in the two posts.
I don't think Amtrack or the Postal system are making huge amounts of money that is being wasted, which is what you imply.

Both the Amtrack and Post Office examples are mainly from loss of use by majority of the people. Email and airplanes.
However, there is not a lot of call to cut these services yet. Especially postal, it is ridiculously cheap to send mail still considering the work to get it from point A to point B.

Looking for more explanation..

I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome
