From One Liberal to Another, Shame on You: 10 Flaws in the Latest Do-Not-Mail Initiative

Flaw 8: Being Realistic
Another question I posed to Paglia centered on his ideas for how the USPS should reinvent itself and not subject poor letter carriers to delivering those nasty catalogs and other junk mail anymore. Paglia referred to a new USPS “2.0.”

“It’s clear that the USPS is in trouble now,” he said. “They’re looking at a $1 billion loss now due to less use of First Class mail. Do Not Mail is one of the many things they need to address. We don’t want people to be out of jobs and have this be a catastrophic event in the life of the USPS. It can give the USPS more flexibility and make them not dependent on not sending mail to people who don’t want it.”
