I say let the USPS compete for the shipping business. As for Amazon, with their one-day and same-day shipping options they have, or will have, a physical presence in every state anyway, and would be required to collect sales tax for those jurisdictions under the current laws. That costs money and they just want the government to make their competition pay for their expansion of services by artificially inflating their competition's costs, interfering in the marketplace by further incentivizing Amazon's new shipping services.
