I see your point and my solution would require vigilance at the state level to elect officials that would see that is not only the rights of the states but responsibilities of the separate states to do what the majority of their citizens so desire

However in no way do I see a national government solution as fixing anything. Adding another level of bureaucracy and a whole line of sit on your A$$ jobs to be handed out like candy that will be paid for out of my paycheck is what I see out of this

Don't get me wrong, I agree with you that there is NO need for the government to get any bigger or suck more money from our paychecks. (Aaaaargh! God forbid!!!)

Of course, whether states take responsibility, or feds do, there will be a new army of government workers to implement it (probably ex-telemarketers with a vendetta. LOL!).

I also wonder how hard it will be for the feds to actually enforce this law.

It seems pretty impossible unless the new army of federal workers includes a new army of trial lawyers.

(sigh) Well, at least Edwards will have something to do after he loses the Democratic primary.

:o)

I don't know how much "bureaucracy" and "sit on your A$$ jobs" are involved, but at least be reassured that it's not coming out of your wallet. The system will be paid for by subscription fees paid by the telemarketers.
