Can Marijuana save the United States Postal Service (USPS)?

Post-Prohibition, postman deliver that oz of LA Confidential.

The Dec 15 2011 Daily Show skit Too Big To Mail lovingly poked fun at the continued dismantling by Congress of the 236 year old United States Postal Service (USPS).  Instead of trying  “send your mom a letter” and “give your customer the comfort of a physical receipt” campaigns, how about this one instead?

End federal prohibition and think of all the cannabis the USPS will be shipping across the country.  The postal worker will be the person everyone on the block is happy to see!

I’m not a fan of monopolies, but you can even twist our arms and say all cannabis has to be shipped through the USPS for regulation purposes for a period of time.  People are not going to buy stamps to send unnecessary extra physical documents.  But we’ll light up a joint with pride every time knowing it helped save the iconic USPS from disappearing!
