POSTMASTER’S “POSTMARKS” By Linda Johnson Walkerton Postmaster If Americans are known for anything, it’s getting he best value for their dollar. Rightfully, when prices for products go up, we ask ourselves, “Are we getting a good deal?” When it come to postage, yes, indeed, we are. U.S. postage rates are a worldclass bargain. Just think for a moment what 32 cents will buy. For less than the cost of a candy bar, the Postal Service will pick up your letter, carry it to the most remote places in this vast land, and personally deliver it for you. Likewise, with no monetary investment on your part, we personally your letters to you aauy. The price of postage had been stable for four years, but, unfortunately, the cost of real estate, vehicles, utilities, gasoline, salaries, and numerous other daily expenses have not remained stable. For that reason, we must raise our rates from time to time. The impression that taxpayers’ dollars help support the Postal Service is a common misconception. Since 1982, the Postal Service’s operational expenses have been funded solely by revenues , generated by the sale of our pro- . ducts and services. Prior to 1982, postage rates were kept artifically low because they were subsidized by Congress from taxpayer funds. J Critics of the Postal Service quickly point out that a first class stamp in 1971 cost only 8 cents. You should be aware that the true cost of postage was not apparent in that postage rate due to the tax subsidy. ‘ Today’s rates reflect the total and true cost of handling a piece of mail, regardless of what class of mail it is.
