"junk mail" keeps the USPS alive, and it hardly feels like a break when you see 20-30K going to the post office every week.... oh, and "junk mail" just got hit with a 7% postage increase this month.
"junk mail" is also delivered to the local post office, not picked up at the printing facility.
I believe in this so much that I send the Junk mail right back to them in the prepaid envelopes to give the Postal service more money.
