Then don't buy any services. That is your choice. So I spend ten cents a day to know who is calling me. Big deal. I get 20 to 50 calls a day and I don't always have time to take all the calls and there are calls that I don't want to miss.

To me, that's a better way than to run to the freaking federal government for 'protection'.

My frustration in all of this is the fact that we -- on this supposedly conservative forum -- are running to government to take care of an relatively minor annoyance.

That is what the liberals do. The telemarketers are not raping, robbing, or killing us although to hear some people describe it, that is exactly what is going on. Even those offenses are state, not federal crimes. I can almost understand a state 'do not call' list.

There are market based solutions to handle this. Do we really need FEDERAL intervention?
