I wonder to what extent it makes a difference that this is a weird backwater part of the economy. We're not talking about groceries or internet service. This is a service that a tiny minority of Americans will ever use or even come into contact with, and it's definitely an optional service. Extra so for people who are part of our world, yet are loud and proud antigraders, like Jingram.
