Is the USPS a nonprofit organization?
Answers: Definitely not !!
The United States Postal Service (USPS) is an independent establishment of the executive branch of the United States government responsible for providing postal service in the U.S.
No. It is not a registered nonprofit organization. It is a government agency.
Until adoption of the Postal Reorganization Act of 1970, the U.S. Postal Service functioned as a regular, tax-supported, agency of the federal government.
According to the laws under which it now operates, the U.S. Postal Service is a semi-independent federal agency, mandated to be revenue-neutral. That is, it is supposed to break even, not make a profit.
The other two answers are partially correct. The USPS was established as a Quasi-Governmental agency, mandated by law to only break even over time. That would make the USPS a Not For Profit organization, but a self sustaining one. USPS receives no taxpayer funding for operations and hasn't since around 1986.
However, the new law signed by President Bush in December 2006 alters that a bit. USPS is still required to provide universal service at a reasonable cost to every address in the US and its territories and possessions. USPS is now permitted to actually bank profits to offset future rate adjustments.
USPS is also more free to set rates in a more responsive manner to rapid changes in the market place. Products have been divided into two segments. Competitive and Market Dominant. The Market Dominant products Like First Class Mail, Standard Mail and the like have future rate increases tied directly to the CPI and may be adjusted on an annual basis. Competitive Products like Package Services can be adjusted as necessary in response to the changing marketplace.

Does anybody know any internet lawyers?
Answers: You mean lawyers you will advise you through the internet rather than in person or on the phone? I don't know of any--but I bet there are a few posers.
You need the services of a real, live attorney who knows the laws in your state and specializes in this area of law. (For instance, you don’t hire a tax attorney for your medical malpractice suit.)
To find an attorney, you can call your local (county) Bar Association, which will give you the names of attorneys in your area who are accepting clients. They will not recommend anyone over someone else. You can also check two websites.
http://findlaw.com lets you indicate the general area of your legal issue and your location, by city or zipcode, then produces a list of attorneys. There’s also an option to submit your legal issue and location plus contact information, and any attorney interested in the case will get in touch with you. There’s no guarantee any will be interested, of course.
http://www.martindale.com/ is also a site for finding attorneys where you are located who handle your type of case. It purportedly rates the attorneys, too. However, within the legal community the ratings are considered more an indicator of hourly fee than of competence. Any attorney who’s been rated at all, even not very highly, should represent you well. Those who are unrated may lack experience.
