    well, isnt that just wonderful. I do understand the stamp hike though. you can mail a letter from new york to california, it will get there in just a few days for $.50. that is insanely cheap. try doing the same thing through fedex or ups. It will be much much more costly. also, try mailing the same letter in Europe, multiples the cost of here in the states. I dont like it, but i understand

    But won't stamp and package price hikes just increase the amount of emails vs letters?

    very possible. certain things do have to be mailed though.

    If raising the cost of postage would solve the problems at the USPS, those problems would have been solved long ago based on the increasingly more common price hikes seen over the last decade

    No one is mailing letters anymore. The USPS is a package courier now for the most part.
