Fun fact USPS has a mail category specifically for sending spam to people, and it is sold at prices far below cost of delivery. Yay for government run business

- skinnymuch 4y agoIf USPS was a private company it would stop delivering where UPS and FedEx don’t deliver too. All three would obviously raise prices too. Yay for private capitalist businesses.
- autoexec 4y agoYou aren't wrong, but the solution should be to just cover the expenses of the USPS upfront with tax money instead of allowing them to take in funding by contributing to the destruction of our planet and stuffing all our mailboxes with literal trash. The USPS is an amazing service that absolutely deserves to be funded, but as long as we're paying for it, let's choose a method that would mean finally putting an end to all the crap in our mailboxes and eliminating all the waste in energy and resources spent carrying it all from the post office to the mailbox to the landfill.
- skinnymuch 4y agoOh for sure. This is America though. Economically it's as right wing as things get.
