Junk mail is a net positive for postal service revenue. Even if you could eliminate it (major free speech concern), would it be a good idea? Who would pay extra when the can just throw out the junk in less than 2 minutes a week?
- eru 4mo agoA privatised postal service could capture this as well to finance rural delivery.

- limagnolia 4mo agoI'm not sure that there is any law forcing you to accept it, but if you have a mailbox, it will get put into it. I don't think there is any law requiring anyone to have a mailbox, though.
