[QUOTE="bluehdmc, post: 1225466, member: 18471"] The Postal Service can only raise the price of a stamp with Congressional approval. We all know how long that can take, they also can't close branches or many other business decisions without approval. They wanted to stop Saturday delivery but Congress said NO. They are also the only govt/quasi Govt agency that has to pay their retirees medical payments 75yrs in advance. Also first class mail is dwindling, between emails, faxes, and online billpay not much goes by first class mail. There's some people who want to privatize the PO, if that were to happen what do you think will happen to costs and service. They're gonna tell a private company, "You have to keep that Office open that only has 100 customers?" or "You still have to deliver on Saturday." [/QUOTE]
