The US Postal Service has existed for over 200 years, and at no point has it become mandatory.

We could easily provide half a dozen other major government initiatives which intersect with commercial activity and do not seem remotely on track to mandatory usage.

What makes this particular initiative different? If the postal service were created today, would you also suspect that it would become mandatory in a matter of time?
