which means that the postal service actually has more domestic retail outlets than wal-mart, starbucks, and mcdonalds combined. the financial health of the u.s. postal service has been declining for years, but the rapid changeover in everybody's lives to electronic communications combined with the economic downturn in the country, swept the postal service into a financial death spiral. in this fiscal year alone, 2011, the postal service in july told our committee that it faced a total loss, a deficit this year of $8 billion. by september, it revised its estimate saying they will now lose $10 billion. the postmaster general told our committee unless he gets new authority from congress, the postal service will run out of money to deliver the mail by sometime next summer. that's why we're introducing this comprehensive legislation to put a number of cost saving measures in place which my colleagues will discuss in some detail in a moment. i want to say that we know that much of these proposals will be controversial because they include reducing the number of postal facilities in our country, both post o

it has more installations than wal-mart, starbucks, and mcdonald's put together. even though a number of them have been closed over the years. there's a reason that we've made this investment for 235 years. there's a reason that there are hundreds of thousands of dedicated employees. there is a reason why we have the broad sweep and that is this critical element of holding our country together. it is a backbone of commerce. we talk today about the economy of the future, ecommerce is a large and growing area. it relies upon the postal service for much of its efficiency. and i'll talk a little bit about that later. but it's also a tremendous resource for the american public . i can drop in the mail here in washington, d.c., if -- before i get back to my home in portland, i can drop my tax payment in the mail, 44 cents, with great confidence that that's going to arrive in a timely fashion in my -- and my bill will be paid. i think, this is -- it is, i think, interesting to look at the large national direct mail marketing industry that involves advertising and shippin

two years, and while not admitting it off the record, they want somebody in the work force, mcdonald's, starbucks>> alisyn: it's a catch 22, can't get a job unless you have a job. and in the article people unemployed for two years don't necessarily have the training, latest computer skills that they need to be hired for new jobs. it's a vicious circles. >> clayton: and the way that technology moves, you need to be on pace with that. e-mails about that, but i want to do e-mails like this. if you're waking up with the depressing-- here is something fun. a new study out this morning finally figured out which gender, main to be made with this study. which gender at night likes to cuddle in bed. >> alisyn: men, guess what, ladies, it's men, it's their secret. men like to spoon. go ahead and discuss. >> clayton: when you say spoon. >> dave: we're not going to cuddle now, we do that at the commercial break. >> alisyn: you've been hiding this from women. >> dave: i know why my wife sleeps on the edge of the bed to get away from me, i'm a cuddler. >> clayton: every night a debate. my wife says no, no, you

that startles me is that it has more retail outlets, if you can put it that way, then starbucks, wal-mart, and mcdonald's combined. we have got to close some post offices. i have been through this a few times in connecticut, and here again, this is not a typical business. there was one case in a small town years and years ago where the postal service here in washington tried to close the post office and on a shirt -- a sheer numbers basis, they were right. but that little post office was not only important to the businesses and the people in town, but there was also a sense that it had become a community center. people would go down and pick up the mail, they would chat. it is very difficult to close post offices, b it is necessary to do that now. and i want to stay for the record -- senator mccain said something earlier, which is that this bill will stop the closing of post offices by the postal service's, and it will not. including with your amendment, it creates what i would say are somef plummet -- are some thoughtful due process for closing the post offices. and i think it would be good instead of c

but mcdonald's was still it was the best performer among just a handful of gainers for the dow. from frappes to frappacinos, shares of starbucksercolated to a 52-week high. quarterly profits at the coffee giant rose 29 percent. this week, starbucks began selling its own coffee and tazo tea for green mountain single serve machines. that's expected to boost earnings for sbux between three and five cents per share next year. shares in each company spiked at least 5%. and finally, shares of inhibitex, more than doubled on promising mid-stage stage trials of its hepatitis-c drug. shares in the small biotech firm closed at $8.54 a share. that's a spike of nearly 116%. volume exploded to nearly 30 million shares from its normal average of about 600,000 shares. shares in pharmasset and idenex fell on the news. both firms have similar treatments in the pipeline. a difficult end to a disastrous week for m.f. global. ceo john corzine resigned today, just four days after the brokerage firm filed for brankruptcy. in a statement, corzine said quote, "i feel great sadness for what has transpired at m.f. global and the impact it has had on th
