In 1970, a first-class mail postage stamp cost 6 cents. In 1980 it was 16 cents. Today it’s 63 cents. I still have “forever” stamps. I don’t mail letters anymore. We will see the $1 stamp soon.

The actual price or the “shrinkflation” price?

A first class stamp used to get a letter from NYC to LA. Now it only gets to Albuquerque.
