Can someone please tell me why the USPS spends large amounts of money for the design and printing of special stamps when, from what I have seen, they are always operating in the red?

There is no practical purpose for such stamps.

There are so many people deserved of stamps that aren’t there yet thanks to the wokeness of postal ideas.

* Chairman of the Board
* The Intimidator
* Rush Hudson Limbaugh III

Now we get a biggie on the list, it’s fitting that we get this legend on a stamp. In the history of the movement, WFB deserves his laurels. Rush is next.

Now you want to see liberal heads explode, let them put out a stamp honoring Rush Limbaugh.

The sad thing about Rand was her atheism, which is usually not a factor with most conservatives.


Correct. In most Libertarian circles, it is almost required to be atheist.

Sad. Libertarianism has some good ideas. It falls apart at the boundary conditions.

But those communist scumbags had no problem naming a naval ship after a butt-humping pervert...

As well as a supporter of one of the worst mass murderers in history, the Communist Jim Jones.

It costs the post office much less to make these stamps than what they sell for. A great many of these limited edition stamps are purchased by collectors who do not use them for postage.

Hence, many of them are profitable.

It’s an actual revenue stream because of collectors.

The real question is should we continue to have a uniform national cost for mail to every address in the US or should they charge by weight AND distance like Fed Ex and UPS do?

None of the other services deliver to every address in the US daily, 6 days a week for exactly the same price regardless of where the sender and recipient live.

Also 1st class mail has both statutory and common law 4th and 5th amendment protections.

That humping pervert got BOTH a stamp AND a ship.

Thankfully, the man Trump picked out of Seat No. 3 of Fox & Friends said “Warrior Ethos” and changed the ship’s name. Now remove all the SJW’s names on the class. RBG? Earl Warren? John Lewis? Obama staff named all oiling ships for the Left’s social justice warriors. Replace them with MLB players of World War II who served.

Maybe we need to look at naming an Army ship the USAV Walter Maynard Moore, Jr. (NASCAR car owner who served in the Army, part of D-Day), and have it announced at Converse College (which owns the property that was once Moore’s race shop).

Soon a new generation of names need to be added. USAV Patrick Tillman.

Mail has a uniform cost for one ounce. Uniform costs are up to a pound. Every other one has a differing cost.

The feds also have a mandate that FedEx and UPS be X times more expensive than the post office, which must be repealed for shipping.
