> USPS does not make profit;
That's besides the point with respect to the comment you're responding, which is clearly about the profits from making and selling this stamp (rather than the USPS as a whole) -- and importantly, how the substance of this discussion (whether the stamp has a picture of the real or the fake Statue of Liberty) influence profits. Which I agree with grandparent that it probably doesn't, and why I think debating profits for the entire USPS isn't responsive to grandparent's comment (and why I find the awarded damages ridiculous in the first place).
In any case, for the sake of that argument, I think it's possible to discuss potential profits/losses from a single business activity/product without considering the gross profit for the entire company, organization or, in this case, government agency. Which leads to
> USPS is a private company.
No, it's not. "The United States Postal Service (USPS; also known as the Post Office, U.S. Mail, or Postal Service) is an independent agency of the United States federal government responsible for providing postal service in the United States, including its insular areas and associated states. It is one of the few government agencies explicitly authorized by the United States Constitution." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Postal_Service
> Not that it matters anyways
Really? Just because a business is private doesn't mean that it doesn't matter if it turns a profit or not. Sure from some extreme and strictly capitalist (and even then, very narrow) viewpoint this might be the case.
Personally I think it matters quite a bit what companies make a profit (and can continue to exist), whether they be private, public, government-owned, and whether or not I own part of it. We live in a world dominated by capitalism where the success or failure of companies influences societies tremendously. I hope that the companies that conduct business in a way I support will turn a profit, and I hope that companies doing the opposite will loose and die.
Equifax would be a perfect example of the latter: In the absence of some sort of government action to administratively dissolve the corporation (which is rare but in their case, as one of few I can think of, would be entirely appropriate), Equifax is a company I sincerely hope will never again turn a profit.
