There is no "private group" running the post office. The U.S. Postal Service was created by the Postal Reorganization Act of 1970, which took effect July 1, 1971. The law removed the postal service from the Presidential Cabinet and made it a quasi-governmental body independent of the Executive Branch and organized along corporate lines, but with leadership appointed by the President and enjoying certain government privileges, such as monopoly power over delivery of regular mail. The U.S. Postal Service has many contracts with private firms for various services, but there is no contract with a "private group" to "run" the postal service.
