Are "forever" USA postage stamps sold at the current first class mail
price?... how does that work?...
Does that mean it's a more economical consumer choice when buying
stamps for letters?...

This is the way the system worked:
July 29, 1998 USPS issued a NVI stamp for breast cancer research, (32c
+8c) or 40 cents at the window until January 9, 1999. If you went to
the window a day later, January 10. 1999 the same stamp would still
cost 40 cents, however the numbers change to (33c + 7c), cancer
research loses a penny.
January 7, 2001 the same stamp is 40 cents now (34c + 6c), cancer
loses another penny.
March 23, 2002 the same stamp will now cost you 45c BUT now the
numbers are (34c + 11c), cancer is going to recover some, if the
stamps sell.
Flash forward 97 days. Yhe price is still 45c but the numbers change
to ( 37c + 8c).
Sales of the Cancer stamp were suspended January 1. 2004, resumed
February 2, 2004 through December 31, 2005.
Take the Forever stamps as a grain of salt and be wary of USPS pricing
policy.
