How to eat a cake

At first glance, this is just another parcel, sent by mail.

It looked a bit strange, mostly because it was so heavy. First class mail is limited to 13oz. It is also a no no to use priority mail tape for anything other then priority mail (they really get pissed when i do this).

So i checked it, and it fucking weighs 28+ oz, label only reads 12oz. I wonder how many times stuff like this happens, and if, after all this is why the post office is loosing money so badly. Like arik blum said "they are robbing you blind!" I wonder how many of the many thousands of parcels this person shipped were under paid and over weight, and more then that, how many of all the parcels sent through the mail are billed this way...

On one hand, it is clearly the moral thing to do from a social value standpoint, to use USPS. On the other hand, this is just as bad as any right wing american claiming welfare makes people lazy, and then refuse to fund it so no one really has a chance but to be totally dependent on a system designed to keep people poor. Whatever.
