'...the best reason for ending the postal monopoly: to make home package delivery cheaper. ... it's no secret that UPS and FedEx hate delivering to our homes, because of the time it takes to get out of the truck and ring the bell. The penalty is staggering - residential deliveries often cost 10 to 20 percent more than those for businesses. Allowing these package humpers to carry first- and third-class mail would make this "suburban tax" disappear.'
