Down with the Man

From raoin and mech_angel

"In March 2007, the Postal Regulatory Commission (PRC), the body that regulates postal policy in the United States, voted to drastically hike postal rates on small and independent periodicals.

"The new rates — based on a plan submitted by Time Warner — shift the burden of postal costs from magazines like Time and People with large circulations and heavy advertising onto smaller magazines like The Nation and The National Review.

"As a result, these smaller publications — a vital source of political opinion and ideas — are facing crippling rate increases that may force many of them to make significant cutbacks or even go out of business."

Doesn't seem like such a good Idea to me. I like the Idea of doing something about it.
