This is not true for much of society. Many, many people receive important documents in the mail: voter IDs, driver’s licenses, voting forms, Medicare and Social Security forms, utility bills, mortgage statements, IRS docs, unemployment benefits, and more. These all seem pretty meaningful, no?
- joncrane 6y agoYes but who orders a shiny new utility bill and obsessively tracks its progress until it's finally delivered and they can joyfully unbox it? Who orders their mortgage statement and medicare form and forcefully complains to the ombudsman when they come late three times in a row?
- take_a_breath 6y agoPeople who are struggling to make payments or rely on Medicare for their health? Is it really so hard to imagine how other people live their lives differently?
- delfinom 6y agoSome of us that recognize the severe damage that can be inflicted on you if said documents were to fall into the wrong hands because most companies don't give a shit and allow their CSR to be socially engineered into fucking someone over?
- heliodor 6y agoThey are important but packages far outnumbers it.
