I don't suppose that they could cut spending anywhere? Oh well, I suppose I should be grateful that I can slap a $.37 stamp on a letter, and be reasonably assured that it will go anywhere in the world.

But having spent a great deal of time at the post office, I can't help but think that some of that deficit comes from poor efficiency and bad service.

Well it was $.60 to go to Canada and $.80 to go to Europe under current pricing. Don't know what those rates will go to but I can assure you that they won't drop in half...

We spend, selling through eBay, an average (or rather the buyers spend) an average of $600.00/month on shipping. There are several other eBay sellers in our area spending approximately the same amount. Small village - population 548. I never paid the Post Office, prior to eBay, $600.00/month to send my mail - it was more like next to nothing. To my way of thinking e-mail versus snail mail is being made up by shipping packages. So what say you, the Post Office?
