Should the DNC list have gone into effect, the true beauty would have been realized by the left, MASSIVE unemployment. Overnight, pink slips well in excess of 1 MILLION people would have been delivered, 2 million according to the head of the telemarketing association.

Oh cry me a river for the poor boiler room telemarketers. America says it hates telemarketing. Well, the numbers don't bear that out.

Right, that's why 50 million people signed up to be put on the DNC list. Go back to cold calling people who don't want to talk to you.

I don't call people that don't want to talk with me. If someone says they are not interested, or I deem them to not be qualified, I place them on my DNC list.

Each week, I call about 200 clients of the bank regarding things like tax free bonds, mutual funds, etc. 3-4 folks buy, 1 or 2 folks ask that I don't call. The remaining get a call every 4-6 months. I can honestly tell you, that my calls don't seem to be the type to bother folks. Am I supposed to be punished because there are folks that really abuse the phone system?
