No, the USPS is a government owned service that is self sufficient and receives no tax money. All profits are funneled back into the service and none go into the general fund.

Does the post office get any government subsidies?

The postal service is one of the few agencies that is authorized by the Constitution BUT it is an independent agency generating its own revenue. It is NOT subsidized by the fed and anyone with a brain can Google the info on the federal budget and see that the USPS isnt there. The USPS operated at a profit until 2008 when it had a $16 billion short fall (welcome to the electronic age). Thru modernization they have streamlined and reduced their shortfall to $5 billion (operating costs are about $70 billion) in 2015 mostly due to Cadillac retirement programs. They do BORROW money from the fed but the key word is "borrow". So in answer to your question NO the federal government does NOT subsidize the USPS.


Can they take your tax refund?

If by "they" you mean the government, then yes is the answer. Your refund will be held or taken from your account if you owe back taxes. Not only can your taxes be held, "they" can empty your account of any money you have earned if you owe the government money, and have not made any arrangements to pay.With few exceptions, such as a disability check, the governmentcan take your last dime if you are delinquent. Your rent, food, and other bills are not taken in to consideration. The only thing they cannot take is cash, because it is in your hands.
