vulnerable communities from exploitatively expensive access to a basic need like the mail is

Basic need for what? Real estate sales flyers?

You lost my attention at Naomi Klein and her Volvo Socialists.

Our government has better things to spend our money on.

This seriously reads like some misinformation bot.

Explain to us all why you think it's a good idea to require people to use online services for their taxes, voting ballots, banking and credit documentation (any bills really), medical correspondence, etc. You never thought about guaranteeing your right to not disclose to the state that you're disabled when you don't have to, since you should be guaranteed this service anyway? Is there a reason you're okay with the state treating what ought to be a public service like it's a business? Did you have some lapse in object permanence and forget that other human beings exist and do things that you do not do?

Complete bootlicker vibes from you. They steal our money to give to corporations, and here you are begging for even less to go to you, spineless.

Yeah, giving somebody's personal manifesto as a source is always a bad sign. I don't care if it's Naomi Klein or Ayn Rand. TBF I learned a bit about the history anyway.
