You see it as a contract between 2 companies, which is fundamentally wrong. It's a contract with an independently run federal agency in the public sector with a for-profit company. It's not the same thing, sorry.

Yeah it is, just don't sign the contract if you can't fulfil it.

Louis Dejoy served as a supply chain chief executive for XPO Logistics before he became Post Master General of USPS. After joining USPS a 120 million dollar contract was awarded to his former company XPO Logistics.

He has also been actively trying to sabotage USPS since he became Postmaster General. His motive is obvious because his actions benefit XPO Logistics.

This contract is just another example of that sabotage.

So don't hire people who sabotage the thing? Lol
