Mailing a letter to cost a penny more next year

I think that it is common knowledge that stamps are going to go up because of general inflation. I do think this is news though because of the post offices that have closed in the past year. Hand mail is decreasing and email is taking over. The personal touch of a hand written letter is not as popular as it has been in the past. The post office won’t go completely out of business because people will still have packages shipped, but as the years go on, the personal touch of the hand written letter will keep decreasing

    First class mail is in trouble. This is a story idea, Cassie. How many students still write “real” letters.
