Since 95% of mail delivered is unsolicited, bulk rate junk mail, how's about raising the bulk rate 4000%?
Eliminates virtually all junk mail, and if it doesn't eliminate it (because the advertisers choose to pay the new rate), it at least pays for itself, for once.
What other advertising medium is subsidized by the govt. to the manner and degree that the USPS is?
Either way, it drops this asinine necessity of keeping the dinosaur on life support.
Scale it back to where it needs to be, or force the abusers to pay their fair share to use it.
Pretty goddamn simple, really.
