- Rebelgecko 6y agoDepending on how you measure externalities, it probably is

- manquer 6y agoPerhaps , I am talking about places like this https://facts.usps.com/8-mile-mule-train-delivery/ https://facts.usps.com/8-mile-mule-train-delivery/. Or the remote islands I don’t see how Ups or Fedex will service it at the cost USPS currently does
