It may not be a right to receive door to door mail, but it certainly helps make life a lot better and easier for many people.
And you can be assured that the money you save, by dispensing with it, will be spent by your government on things that are of much less benefit to society.

This is an absolutely ridiculous argument. First, we are talking door to door. All those things can be dropped at a community box. Second, when was the last time your, or anyone, went to a local business because of mail? That Google could not have done better?
Packages and parcels are what got them into this jam in the first place. Be competitive or die.
And finally, if we don't do anything, because the gov't will just waste it anyways is not an argument. Maybe, again, just maybe, hold the ####ing gov't to account and don't vote blue over and over and over, despite their wicked ways.
