A suggestion for those folks who are not happy with the
latest price increase of the US Postal Service (referred to
by many other names...)

Get more for your money.  Very simple: use penny stamps.  That's
right you get one hundred stamps for a dollar...... amazing!!
Simply put 22 of them on an envelope and off you go.  You will
never get stuck having the wrong denomination stamp again.

And what is more important you will rest assured that the Postal
Union and those working for the Post Office will be WORKING.  You
see, they have to cancel each stamp...... or else you or your friends
may use the stamp a second time.

(I do not advocate the illegal use of USED STAMPS.)

The mail process is so slow anyway the delay will be minor.  And
perhaps with an increased demand in penny stamps we will see
beautiful commemORative penny stamps.

SO, GET MORE FOR YOUR MONEY USE ONE CENT STAMPS.
