Actually my understanding was the other way around. That is, the US =
government is subsidizing (or at least providing preferential rates) to =
China for shipping. It actually came up as a point of contention during =
the Trump's presidency:
"China is still considered a =E2=80=9Ctransitional=E2=80=9D country by =
the UPU, which means it enjoys a lower rate for sending mail to a =
developed nation like the US. As a result, mail services from China to =
the US cost less than Americans are charged by their own postal service =
for a comparable domestic delivery."
