LT,

That is very interesting. I have never heard that before but intuitively the idea has great appeal.

I wonder if there is a correlation somewhere of the rate of postal increases to CPI. If the rate of postal increases are greater than CPI for the past 30 years, then the idea might have real merit.

Good Trading
TH

P.S. I'm in Royal Oak Michigan, so we give the Post Office anything they want, without question. We don't want anyone "going postal". We invented that, er concept.

It was the Postal Service's contention that while its employees served in the military on active duty , the military should be responsible for their retirement pension payments.

The Bush administration took the opposite view.

The Bush admin. won. The bulk of the increase will go to pay for these pension payments. If I remember right, the amount in question is $27 billion.
