It is unfortunate in the fund-raising world that by spending $4 on mailers and phone calls, the result is $5 incoming, for a net gain of $1, that wouldn't be there at all without the wasteful expenditure of the $4.
Also, I am told that one can opt out of those fund-raising mailers, though I haven't done it myself.
