The United States Postal Service has unilaterally decided to eliminate the majority of Saturday Postal Delivery Services. They will however, continue certain premium deliver services. They cited that the public was unwilling to pay for increases to continue this service.
Here is the USPS press release: http://about.usps.com/news/national-releases/2013/pr13_019.htm
Here is the problem:
1. Nobody asked the public what their opinion was on this subject
2. The Post Office wasn’t required to show what other cuts they would make instead of cutting Saturday Delivery
3. There was no trial period suggested to
a. validate the cost savings
b. test the public reaction
