Since electronic communication has become so prevalent, the post office has been losing money faster than amtrack. There was actually a proposal a few years ago to put a 1 cent "fee" for every email sent, which would be added to the post office operating fund.

I remember when stamp costs were single digit cents...

Today its what, 44 cents?

Most people pay bills and bank online, meaning so much "real" mail is no longer needed.
