I see the USPS is raising the price of 1st class stamps (again!) to .41 cents...However they are selling a "Forever Stamp" that will cost you .41 cents now but it will always be valid 1st class stamp no matter how much first class stamps go up to in the future...I guess they want up to stock up now.

Maybe they are afraid that computers and email will replace them?

Doesn't this price increase go against the laws of supply and demand? I thought you needed to lower cost to attract customers...

Their system seems to be the fewer customers using 1st class mail the higher the price needs to be...at this rate a 1st class stamp in 2017 will cost about $20.00...

Maybe I should buy a lot of the Forever Stamps after all????

Then I could re-sell them later and make some $$$$$, LOL. This could be better than the stock market.
