Simply not true. I am a mortgage broker in KY. We hire a telemarketing company to call people to see if they are interested in refinancing. Here in KY, there is a legal no call list. The lists of homeowner names and numbers, which cost money, are scrubbed for people on the no call list. Many times the people reached are interested in talking to someone. Those names and numbers are passed on to a loan officer who follows up to see if the client is helped. There are legitimate calls. If you cannot tell the difference, hang up. I personally don't talk to telemarketers. BUT, I don't hate them or begrudge them the work they do.

Don't give the federal govt more power. It doesn't handle it well.

What is the source of your assertion that the federal government, rather than the individual phone owner, is placing people on the DNC list?
