Duh, the only reason there can be a Fed Ex is because the Post Office handles
the bulk of the mail.
The PO obviously could be better, but it really needs a more democratic
political system,
so that it's users could pressure it through Congress. The existing system is
just not that democratic.
Also, some ridiculous portion of doctor costs go to navigating all the existing
