Once a Week Mail Delivery

It's a idea of Barr Hills on May 27 2004 

Once a week mail delivery -

Why not force senders or receivers of mail to pay extra for timely delivery? Conversely, why not provide senders a lower-cost option for non-timely delivery of mail?

If normal mail, which is 95% junk, were delivered only once a week, individual mail carriers could serve more locations, less fuel would be burned, and less vehicles would be needed. In addition, receivers of mail would only need to look at this junk once a week, which would be far more efficient.

If receivers really wanted daily delivery, they could pay a monthly maintenance fee. Alternatively if the sender really wanted prompt delivery (e.g. weekly news magazine),he could pay up for it.
