In reply to Sunsh1ne. While they claim to be self sufficient, USPS still uses plenty of taxpayer paid government services. All of their locations are controlled by the GSA, rents are paid by the GSA, leases are signed by the GSA, new locations are researched by the GSA. Their healthcare and retirement are federal accounts, controlled and run by the Dept of the Treasury.

Sure raise prices, higher prices means less business, I know I sell less then half of the items I sold 4 yrs ago. They priced themself out of large packages and long packages.I know I’ve said “Dejoy’ needs to go but so does the board of governors, approving every rate hike increase without seeing how much it hurts small business. Its us small sellers that have kept them going since letter mail has died off, before I started my internet business, I spent maybe $2 a month on stamps, I replaced that with $800-$1400 a month in small package sales.

In reply to Sunsh1ne. Excuse me "The Postal Service Reform Act" removed $57 billion in past-due postal liabilities owed by USPS, not a bail out but forgiveness, still paid by tax payers

Also for some of you commenting Dejoy Dejoy Dejoy!!! You should learn how the Postal Service operates and that the BOARD OF GOVERNORS approves the changes and then are submitted to the Postal Regulatory Commission for approval!!!!!!

Very smart to do this by making it easier for customer to choose as well as adding up to $100 insurance on the 1st class package.

First of let me just add this THE USPS DOESN’T run on any of your taxes!!!!! I have to agree as to why D’joy is still even in operation with USPS!!! Lastly I hope they do raise their prices. Ppl are staying home and ordering a lot more. This would help off set expense. Too many ppl out there reusing stamps and yet they complain .

so, tell me again why (no)de Joy is still operating two competing businesses?

did we forget about him tearing out automated processing machines right before an election, where mail-in ballots were a (real or imagined) issue?

Honestly, unless its real heavy, priority has been cheaper or only a few cents more the parcel post and insured(even though its not worth anything). They shouldn’t raise any prices since our taxes just bail them out and change their medical retirement plan.
