You don't work or contribute much to the household you live in, do
you?  Otherwise, you'd know how annoying it is to devote part of your
paycheck to replacing such an ordinary object which gets destroyed by
careless individuals frequently.

property of the USPS so as to make mail fraud investigations easier.
I suppose that vandalism of post boxes falls under federal
jursidiction, too.  Check with your local PO and law-enforcement
agencies.
