May I also relate - as an apartment dweller, that the post office considers “junk mail” VERY IMPORTANT, and trashes my tiny mailbox with it twice a week.

I have no option to refuse it, and am forced to sort through it to find the few pieces of mail addressed to me specifically for business or personal reasons.

The USPS raised the price of postage for all desired correspondences, and lowered it for junk advertisers, scam mailers and what we on the internet call spam.

Cut out Saturday deliveries, and increase costs for unsolicited mass junk mailers.

And yes, they are going to have to fire a large number of their bloated staffing level of union employees.

The only good thing about unsolicited junk mail is that none of it is pornographic, because that would violate federal law. Unfortunately, even if unsolicited pornographic email were illegal, it would be impossible to enforce a prohibition.
