Why We Still Need Postal Service: Okay, the USPS screws up sometimes -- a LOT, actually -- but if we lose it, we lose what amounts to a welfare-check system. This mailman noticed that a 67-year-old guy on his route didn't come to greet him as he dropped off a Social Security check, as was the customer's habit. And, sure enough, it turned out that the guy was having a medical emergency, alone in an upstairs bedroom, too weak and incapacitated to call for help. The mailman's attention may have saved the man's life. (Boston Herald)
