The price increase sucks, however:

1- USPS is still significantly cheaper than private carriers like UPS and Fedex. Especially when it comes to fast delivery services (priority and express.)

2- The level of service you get for less money, is actually mostly superior, IME / IMHO. Companies like UPS may have a slightly better overnight (with weekend delivery) but you pay through the teeth for it.

And with private carriers, your packages are not protected from illegal search and seizure, like they are with USPS.

USPS has given great service for years, and I'll gladly pay slightly more just to help keep their lights on and their doors open.
