So it seems it should cost more to mail a letter. That's capitalism and the way it should be. The post office is so regulated they can't even raise the price of their services without government permission. Yeah, private enterprise could do a better job...if the feds would stay out of the way. When the post office was trying to cut down on expenses recently they attempted to close some of the more remote office that were not supporting themselves but the powers that be said no. Just another reason they won't ever be profitable.
