What world is it you live where big companies spend their day operating as charities? Jobs will be lost, and in my state alone over 20 billion dollars a year in business was telemarketing sourced. Times that by 50. It won't be that big, but Bush may well regret he signed that thing come the next election. Even if the economy does well, he may say, wow, it could have soared. Well, that was his call. We shall see.

What world do you live in that you expect me to suffer so that these annoying folks can stay employed? If they don't do something that society wants, they ought to find other work. And society has spoken loud on this one - we the people who have been rendered powerless to police the trespassers on our own phone equipment are asking the government to help us.

If this has any effect on Bush's re-election, it will undoubtedly be positive as people remember the nearly unbearable barrage of phone calls that they used to get before the federal list was started. There's a whole lot more voters in favor of this than against it.

Actually, what most people like to do most is bitch and moan. What are you gonna do that about next now that TM is gone?

As for asking the government to help you, I have no symphathy for Democrats, or people who think they aren't Democrats.

Unbearable barrage of phone calls? Wow. Did you wilt? Shrink? Turn pale and have a heart attack? Did you just hide in the closet and cry?

The more you depend on government to do things for you, the less freedom you will have. All you did was make government bigger and assist large corporations in stepping on small independent businessmen. You sir, are no American.
