Did you know that the cost to mail a first class piece of
mail is 46 cents? I have almost a whole
roll of 44 cent stamps I bought a bunch of 1 cent stamps to supplement them the
last time that the price went up now I am going to have to put two 1 cent
stamps on a letter, if the costs keep going up I won't have room for the
address. I am sure you heard last night
or this morning the U.S. Postal Service announced plans to end Saturday mail
delivery starting in August, It will be the biggest change in mail delivery
since the post office ended twice-daily service in the 1950s. “We are mothers and fathers. And sons and
daughters. Who every day go about our lives with duty, honor and pride. And
neither snow, nor rain, nor heat, nor gloom of night, nor the winds of change,
nor a nation challenged, will stay us from the swift completion of our
appointed rounds. Ever.” I think doing
away with mail on Saturdays and offering mail delivery Monday – Friday, will
save the postal service. I for one think
I can do without the weekend mail delivery, and think about the money it would
save us and the business of delivering mail.
I feel bad that it is a job cutting move but many businesses are doing
with less people, I like that it will save us over 2 billion dollars. Your thoughts?
