Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. In-depth analysis uncovers the glaring inadequacies of the U.S. postal and express services, causing exorbitant costs and a lack of mobility in moving essential goods to consumers. Brilliantly conceived, this book proposes a consolidated transportation system that combines the strengths of these two services, promising a wide-reaching, efficient, and economical solution. It calls for a postal express system that would facilitate the direct delivery of retail goods from the producer to the consumer, opening up the market for local farmers and truckers. The system would offer multiple weight options to consumers and merchants of all sizes, to drive down the cost of living and improve access to fresh produce and other vital products. This forward-thinking book provides compelling arguments for a modernized system that addresses the inefficiencies of the current approach, and offers a comprehensive plan for a more just, equitable, and cost-effective way of distributing goods that will benefit consumers, farmers, and businesses alike. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
