danheskett commented on Postal Employees Ordered To Stop Offering First-Class Mail

"why's that? Congress for some specific reasons is afraid of it. By law, postage rates cannot increase faster than the rate of inflation. I don't think this is the case, anymore (if it ever was)."

"Lots of bad information in some of these posts: theysaidwhat hits so many all at once, a few pieces of actual fact: The USPS never anticipated how quickly people would adopt online bill paying (bill presentment and payment made a HUGE percentage of US mail) and also failed to anticipate how quickly people would adopt online tax returns (another HUGE annual boost in business)First class mail is more or less flat, or stagnant."

"TF-- You are close to the bottom line truth: these big companies are trying to segment their market every way possible, and get every individual person to pay as much as possible. So it goes like this."

"Big companies don't pay .41 for postage. 64 letters going to the same 5-digit zip code would most likely pay only .323 for each of those letters. It adds up to big savings."

"NYSPORTS-- So it's okay to buy oil from evil dictators all over the world, but not take it for free? Your position is not supported by logic. In fact, you can make a better case for the fact that taking this oil is a moral imperative, than against it: 1."

"To the folks complaining about their high oil prices, 1) you chose to rent or buy an apartment or house heated by oil and 2) if you are having that much trouble making ends meet, maybe perusing Websites via a high speed internet connection isn't the best use of your time or cash... This is profoundly ignorant, of course."
