Stamp is a little sticker you place on the upper right corner of envelope.

Well... unless you're reading the tabloid, online newspapers cost money too.

How about a 55 cent federal tax on all online purchases?

I was only pointing out a option to help the USPS, the stamps going up is a possible reality.

How about no. It's bad enough the state of Taxsylvania nails us for everything now (even online subscriptions like Playstation Plus) to pay for road projects that take 3x as long as states like NY and we STILL have the same shitty roads.

So no, I'd rather not give the fed anymore money to squander on 'foreign aid' to try bribing nations that hate our guts into "liking" us or all the other pork barrel bullshit our esteemed scumbags in office push through like more things that favor big corporations over us.

Mind you we still use stamps here to mail out the monthly bills cuz the one month I tried doing everything online Verizon and I think a few others decided the payments didn't go through, so I had to mail out a nearly late physical payment. So I'd rather keep using checks and stamps so there's a physical trail to show somebody deposited them.
