    People really are freaking out over a 1 cent increase in first class stamps. I probably send out 10 bills a month so it's going to cost me 10 cents more a month, an extra $1.20 a year, WHATEVER SHALL I DO?!?!
    I wish they'd calm down :/

    We are the cheapest in the WORLD for first class postage -

    Israel - 48 cents
    Australia - 49 cents
    Canada - 58 cents
    England and Ireland - 62 cents
    Germany - 65 cents
    France 68 cents
    Spain - 71 cents
    (these are the worst)
    Sweden - $1.68
    Norway - $1.71
    Mexico - $1.74
    Denmark - $1.85

    Some of our citizens may see all Republicana like George W. as pariahs - it is worse elsewhere. Perhaps, Obama can give his Messiah speech to these countries to lower their rates.

    One cent increase isn't bad at all even though it won't cover our losses for next year. I did what Spauldo is doing - I bought some sheets of 1 cent stamps for the route.
