18. I'm sorry, that doesn't even make sense.

The Postal Service has its own operating budget. Stamps go directly into that fund, which is in no way related to war-related funding. It's not like what we're spending on the war is in any way related to what we're taking in; it's considered an emergency expenditure. The USPS could charge $5 a stamp and not one cent more would go to Iraq.
