USPS warns of default on retiree benefits

Federal News Radio 1500 AM: USPS warns of default on retiree benefits
"The Postal Service will begin to default on its financial obligations just over four months from now unless Congress takes action to relieve it of its obligation to pre-fund retiree health care accounts, its leader told lawmakers Tuesday."

In other words, "everything will be just fine if only you'll allow us to borrow more money from your grandchildren".
