Amazon doesn’t want the blame for the Post Office going under

Amazon is pushing back against blame for the USPS's financial troubles after reports revealed it plans to cut USPS shipments by two-thirds. Amazon claims the USPS walked away from contract negotiations last December, while the USPS says it needs Congress to increase borrowing authority or it will run out of money within a year. The dispute centers on last-mile delivery pricing, especially in rural areas where the USPS handles 30–40% of Amazon deliveries at discounted rates.
