Fair, but would you prefer that money be spent assisting USPS with a pilot program which won’t necessarily be useful nationwide or assisting people and businesses who live in your area to switch to electric cars themselves?

Both because the program is so large it could accomplish this. Truthfully, the feds should fund this.
