It was my impression First Class Mail was the big money loser and the collectibles and parcels were profitable.
If you can charge 2 dollars for a service, and charge 1 dollar instead, you'd be losing a fortune, even if you're making a profit.
It's like the best baseball player in the world signing a contract for $25,000 dollars a year. They'd be profiting $25,000. But they lost a ton of money signing the deal, because they could have gotten $25,000,000 a year.
The key principle is that the value of that 1 dollar exists. And Amazon, the giant company that prints money is getting it, and the Postal Service which loses tons of money doesn't.
Don't let the semantics distract from the more important point.
