Postage conspiracy
 
I'm sure you all noticed that postage went up this year. We were told that the increase was, at least partly, due to rising fuel costs.

But actually, the increase was approved last year and then went into effect in January 2006 - bringing our first class stamp up to $.39 So if you really look at the time-frame, you'll see that fuel prices went up after the approval.


Now (actually, back in May) the post office has requested yet another price increase - up to $.42, which will take effect next year. So... get your pocket ready for yet higher fuel prices.


Why? You don't see the correlation?
It's as plain as can be!!!

The government is manipulating the fuel costs so that we are more accepting of the postage increase!!

Oh, you people are so naive!! All this time you thought it was about hurricanes and middle east wars. WRONGGG!!!!

It's all about making the government's little pet project, the USPS, profitable.

Can't you see the blue line?? It goes UPWARD!!!

This is all a conspiratorial coverup by the government. They found the WMDs and HID THEM so that our attention would be diverted from the REAL ISSUE of POSTAGE!!!

Next year, you'll all be paying $3.75 or $4.00 per gallon to drive to the post office and mail a frikkin letter with 42 cent stamps.

The madness has got to STOP. We MUST seceed now and start our OWN POSTAL SERVICE!!

It's MADNESS people....
MADNESS!!!!

As long as they dont tax my on-line bill paying - they can keep their overpriced stamps...

The goal is to raise postage until you just lick a dollar and stick it to the envelope...

Ask your congressional delegation why the postal service must absorb military retirement obligations?
