“For the past 14 years, the Postal Service has had limited pricing authority to respond to changing market realities,” Louis De Joy, who is the Postmaster General and CEO. “As part of our 10-year plan to achieve financial sustainability and service excellence, the Postal Service and the Board of Governors are committed to judiciously implementing a rational pricing approach that helps enable us to remain viable and competitive and offer reliable postal services that are among the most affordable in the world.”

The Postal Service actually receives no tax dollars. They depend upon the sales of postage and products and services to get their funding.
