Costo is selling these forever stamps.
Maybe others too.
Heard on the radio that the IRS will only communicate with taxpayers through the USPS and I don't want the IRS communicating with me at all under any circumstances.
What other parts of the Constitution do you want to change???????
Article I, Section 8, Clause 7 of the United States Constitution, known as the Postal Clause or the Postal Power, empowers Congress "To establish Post Offices and post Roads".
What other tit sucking government ops are self supporting?
“”To establish Post Offices and post Roads”. “

Not impressed—how many others will take their places with the “flawed”—as aka refers to it, Constitution— constitutional experts quoting this and that and citing their certifications in constitutional law, e.g. aka and biden, on and on....we know who/what they are....and their bigmouth suckups aping them (useful idiots/fella travelers, etc.
I'm not so certain you do. I'm thinking that you just bought the current crop of forever stamps unless they have a stamp price on them.
Folks I know bought 1,000 of them - they spent $420 in order to save maybe $20 over the span of however much time it takes to use 1,000 stamps.
The streamlined, no-hearings-necessary postage rate increases that we’ve been seeing are simply tied to the rate of inflation, so in effect, the Forever Stamps are simply a bearer instrument indexed to the rate of inflation. You’d do better paying cash for your stamps at whatever rate they happen to be at and sticking your $420 in a money market account.
The thieves are not the people running the post office, they're the people running the Federal Reserve and the Bureau of Engraving and Printing's presses.
The post office doesn't control inflation, the Fed does.
Precious metals are a much better hedge against inflation than mass-market postage stamps.
