Defending the Rights of Paper

Do you feel comforted by the steady stream of junk mail coming into your home? After all, what else would do in the bathroom if there was no junk mail?

Well, never fear: In the battle against evil state governments that wish to allow individuals to stem the tide of junk mail, the International Paper Company is fighting back with this memo sent, presumably, to clients which use their paper services. They want to make sure that in the 4 states they deem "actionable," no law passes allowing you, the lowly, uninformed consumer to reject all junk mail that might come your way.

Kudos to the International Paper Company. Fighting the good fight for....dead trees?
