the question is, how much does it really cost to send a letter? Without
competition we may never know, but I will bet that it costs more than
$0.10. thus we all have to subsidise the $0.10 Christmas mail which
doesn't really save us anything. We are, of course, subsidising the
business mail as well.

I figure that they should make junk mail and promotional material
a lot more expensive than regular mail, but that suggestion is not
likely to go over well with the businesses that keep sending me
coupons and junk mail.
