Not exactly. If Reid wasn't given a present by running against S. Angle,
we wouldn't be hearing his idiocy today.

I picture Harry in Search Light, NV talking
cowboy poetry in the Twight Zone

Doesn't he know most of the junk mail seniors get by USPS is
from scam artists who steal their money and wipe out their bank accounts.

Bet you all your electronic junk mail (spam) never sees your inbox.

We are turning into a paperless society with more and more being done electronically.
The PO should be cutting back, which includes reduced mail delivery days.

Junk mail should not be the reason to keep funding the PO. That is a ridiculous reason to promote legislation.

Interestingly, Unsolicited MLM styled ventures sent by e-mail with a heavy emphasis on the "ML" follows this criteria also.

....and with those cuts should come elimination of the regualtions that pevent private sector companies to compete against them. Just becsue the bloated PO can't do this profitablt doesn't preclude a private company from doing it.

Harry Reid says his senior constituents just love getting junk mail. Harry Reid is a senior himself. So, take your name, address, and any other identifying information off you junk mail, and just send it all to Harry. By his own admission, I'm sure he would just be thrilled to get it.
