Don't worry, they are already trying to get rid of the USPS so we can be charged ridiculous amounts for mail delivery.
Don’t worry, it’s been just two weeks. Elon and his minions are coming for it.

I don't care if my mail is still warm when they put it in my mailbox.
Er do people actually pay that high of fees for Uber eats? Maybe in NYC or something? I don't really use it if I can help it but I've never seen fees that high. Edit: although I will note that many of my experiences with GrubHub/doordash/Uber eats end with me looking at the fees, saying "yeah that's way too much", and closing the browser tab.
I've had high fees but things are hidden, like, increased prices, tips, fees and stuff? I got my license last year so now I can drive on my own to get stuff but being in the burbs without transport in these poorly designed towns blows.
And yet, it won't keep you from ordering food.
The issue is that there's still demand for it at that price.

It's a service offered in exchange for currency. No one is forcing anyone to request food delivery service over Uber or whatever. It's pure and simple convenience
The other is a state service, which might surprise some but manages quite a lot of citizens private information. Certainly nothing as banal as food
A letter doesn’t cost as much as overpriced food.
Cooking, the lost art.
