The only people who like the RM the way it is is the government. Everyone else would be quite happy for it to go back into public ownership. But for once they’re not actually at fault here. Charging the recipient is just how it works.
What happened here is basically the private company that took over didn’t care because they had no competition. They were also incredibly corrupt and evil which didn’t help but they also didn’t do basic maintenance and stuff on the infrastructure so everything fell apart.
It all works as long as the government actually puts money into public services but every now and then you get one that seems to think that the solution to a tiny bit of debt is to spend no money at all, on anything.
Yeah governments hate debt but don’t realise the entire world runs in debt.
You just need to manage it correctly. Further on that though, governments shouldn’t make a fucking dollar. They’re not for profit businesses they should all run at exactly zero

Yeah the Australian Post is fucked here too.
Lose shit can’t do anything and is a bloated government service that can’t do its job.
Privatisation would fix so much right up until they’re the only carrier and we pay through the nose for post.
Better yet post as a subscription service would he the way it would go if it went private.
