Anyone who supports the "Do not call" laws has no right at all to complain about government spending, because they are unable to give up their pork.

I don't agree with this at all... Pork is useless spending... Especially useless spending of federal dollars for local projects which don't benefit all states. This is one federal program I was glad to see implemented, and if you want to call it pork, then I'm a big fat pig.

SmithL,
The only thing more irritating to me than a telemarketer is an automated telemarketer... you cannot abuse them, waste their time (like they waste mine), or hang up on them with any satisfaction that they won't call back again. Any idiot who lets this go through as a valid loop-hole around the do-not-call list is just asking to put the phone book companies out of business... Because that's my next move... to go unlisted.

This is why the dollar is headed to the dust bin. No one is willing to have the government down sized, and live with in it's means.

Just as the stock market went thru the dot com bust, so will the dollar, because it is only backed up by thin air.

Would you take an IOU from someone in bankruptcy? That is what the dollar is, The only way to halt the slide is to cut government spending.

I too find the calls a pain in the rear, but the collapse of the dollar will be worse, and who will be taking the blame?

Surely not those glad to see the government expand.

Doesn't matter. They have systems that place calls in sequence....444-1212 then 444-1213 then 444-1214.
