    So are you suggesting USPS raise its stamp price to $3, or UPS lower its price to $3?

    Dude, you're not even in the US. What mail do you get from the USPS?

    My mailbox contains 99% worthless stuff. Even Seinfeld had it right back then.

    Not much, but I do I receive IRS, SS and city government mail at my house in Aurora, CO.

    Yeah, it's all government stuff. the government could move it electronically and that would be the end of your "valuable" mail. Or official government mail could be processed for free via the mail and everyone else could pay the $3 or whatever price to send the worthless mail.

    You wanna be all ecological all the time, think about what this would do to the USPS carbon footprint, in addition to all that paper and ink.

    Good solution. Postage is already paid for certain documents going TO government.
