<span>Henry David Thoreau feels about the standard US institutions such as the postal service and the press that it is wrong and should not be tolerated by everyone. He believes that being poor is the right way to truly live, that material possessions do not taunt you and you appreciate beauty more not what you don't have, that news are not important because sometimes it can give you the wrong idea about the society and yourself.</span>

Answer:

In Walden, Thoreau states that he does not like institutions such as the postal service and the press, as he believes that they do not contribute anything new to society. He believes that few thoughts and letters are worth the price paid for postage. He also believes that there is never new "news," just the same events happening to different people at different times. These views support Thoreau's beliefs that individualism and self-reliance are more important than society or any institution. - Directly from Plato
