Health Coverage With Postal Efficiency?

The Post Office does not operate under restrictions that burden private businesses. It enjoys a legal monopoly on many types of letter mail. And it’s a perfect example of what happens when the government tries to operate as a business.

The new health care law will establish standards of care, to determine what are proper levels of coverage. The law generates an expansion of government in the health system, such as Medicare and Medicaid; much of what we have in the Post Office.

President Obama, when pushing ObamaCare, made the point, "Private insurers should be able to compete, They do it all the time. I mean, if you think about it, UPS and FedEx are doing just fine, right? It's the Post Office that's always having problems."

Obama was actually making an argument of government ineffectiveness.
