Mail five days a week

To combat rising costs and dwindling revenue, the U.S. Postal Service has asked Congress to remove the requirement that it deliver mail six days a week. If lawmakers agree, officials say USPS could potentially eliminate mail delivery on the lightest day of the week – possibly Tuesday or Saturday. Various studies have estimated that this could save the postal service between $1.9 billion and $3.5 billion a year.

 

What do you think? Would you be willing to give up mail delivery for an additional day each week, or do you already wait long enough for your letters, magazines, and bills? Put yourself on video and tell us if you think it's worth it.
