Postal Service, Citing Losses, Seeks Higher Stamp Prices

The U.S. Postal Service is hoping it can soon raise stamp prices by a penny or more.


An independent agency, the postal service does not use taxpayer money for its operations.

congreess forces post office to do dumb things. like saturday delivery....

major cost cuts are necessary. but congress prevents them


What about Sunday deliveries for Amazon Prime?

IMO, the post office is a pretty good deal for what you pay. I'm often
amazed at the service such as a package from CA to CT in two or three
days for $3.50.

I agree the USPS is a bargain and around here the staff is excellent
but I am not sure how it is up in the mobbed up union north.
If they did add a penney, it would just be the one they cut a few
months ago.
Amazon sunday is just a cash cow for them.
