What created the "bottomless money hole" at the USPS?

Along comes Federal Express, now called FedEx and presto, they are a multi-billion dollar company who the Post Office pays to handle their overnight mail.
Like newspapers who had their nose in the air when the Internet began to compete. All of a sudden, newspapers realized their base was gone and their clocks had been cleaned.

What Congress needs to get hot on is passing a "Do Not Mail" law that is similar to the Do Not Call list. This would allow citizens to opt-out of receiving direct mail solicitations. It would save millions of trees, tons of fuel, manhours, and lots of money. It likely would also put the Post Office out of business, as their total mail volume would be reduced by about 50%.
I mean, why should the Post Office deliver mail that gets 80% thrown away unread, or shredded (credit card offers). This is something that truly needs to be addressed.
