To heck with their discount everybody should pay the same rate, there should be no special privilege from the government or else we are not all equal before the law.

I for one am sick and tired of having to grind up all those preapproved credit card deals and throwing the rest into the trash every week. I had to buy a paper shredder just for that and it is a vast waste of my time to boot. Can I charge anyone for all that.

Most junk mail goes to every house or apartment so there is no sorting; just put it in the box.

Junk mail with specific adddresses have bar codes so they are sorted electronically.

In reality, junk mail subsidizes regular mail and is more profitable than regular mail.

Junk mail arrives at the post office presorted for delivery, hence the cost of delivery to the post office is reduced and this is passed on to the mailer.
