I just heard on the radio that the price of a first class stamp is increasing from 41 cents to 42 cents in May, 2008. In other words, it is going up one cent. And this after watching a story on 60 Minutes last night that contended it costs the government two cents to make a one cent coin because of the high price of the metal used. I guess they need that extra penny from the stamp to cover the cost of making the extra penny we will need to buy the stamp.
When you consider this is the government, it makes perfect cents.
