    They don't lose (not loose) money on those because they don't process them. Stamps are now 44 cents each and if there is not proper postage they will return them to you. Most of this is done by machines.

    That is not true, However, it also sells 42 cent stamps, at 42 cents apiece. If the price of a new first class stamp goes above 42 cents, these can only be used in addition with other stamps, making up the price difference.Why do they sell 42 cent stamps?
    I understand that the answer may simply be "Because people might buy them instead of Forever Stamps, and the Post Office makes more money, in the long term, if they do."
