Some of our politicians got it in their head that we all like junk mail? Don't they have better things to do? Let them know if you like or dislike junk mail.

The older people think ALL mail is very important! When my mother lived with us she used to bring me all her mail and I'd take one quick look at tell her to throw it away. She'd look at me like I was crazy!
What I hate is gigantic political mail!
Let's face it...in reality what percentage of mail do you get that you'd consider "good constructive mail"? Mine is almost all ads, political organizations and just plain junk! I pay my bills on-line. I know no one likes junk mail but they need to consider without it the first class mail would cost an astronomical amount. So just trash it and be happy.
