There is no union contract with the Postal Service that says they can never decrease their workforce. In fact the Post Service has lost tens of thousands of employees at automation and the mix of types of mail changes.
If the federal government was the perfect master, that would put the unions out of business. There would be nothing for them to do. The facts, and the number of grievances brought against the government by the unions every year shows otherwise.
Even it the government was the perfect master, would you deny the right for employees to get together and form a union?
