No, never been one. I just think that this increase is going to cost me very little, probably less than $1 year total in additional postage. I realize magazines subs may go up because of the postage increase, but still the impact on me is minimal.

Yes, I rarely use the Post Office, but I do want my mail delivery service. What is so hard to understand?

But why even give the Post Office an additonal dollar? Why should we pay more for bad management?

If you use the postal service as little as you do, then delivery three times per week would seem to more than meet your needs. Would it?

If businesses in your city are paying janitors $20,000 per year, then why is the Post Office paying their janitors more than $50,000 per year? If the Post Office was your business, would you pay your janitors $50,000 per year?

Like most people I now have 90% of my bills paid electronically. Whereas, I formerly wrote 300 to 400 checks per year (and sent them via US Mail), I now write less than 75 checks per year.

I could survive with once-per-week mail service. I only receive about ten invoices per month. Could you?

I am like you. If the Post Office raised the stamp price by 3 cents, I would pay $1.50 additional per year. But why should I pay the Post Office any additional money when they do nothing to be more efficient?
