I guess I should force the government to create a large, unaccountable bureaucracy to have a "No Mail" list.

Well of course you should!!! Sheesh, I just can't imagine the Founding Fathers of this nation sitting around discussing how every time something annoys a citizen of a respective state a new law should be created.

I don't like those little plastic preformed ties on the end of some bread (once you open a loaf you can't get that thing back around to close it) and you have to use a regular twist tie that are found in abundance at the back of at least one kitchen drawer in every kitchen. I think the government should pass a law against those preformed ties too!!

Simple you can choose not to buy those annoying twist ties any longer. -Unlike the rest of us that are sick and tired of telemarketers... we had no choice when it came to being bothered by them.

Billboards? I could care less about them... As long as I am not forced to look at them while I am in the comfort of my own home

Junk mail? I choose a time in which to go check my mail, and when to deal with what is in the mailbox. which includes throwing away anything they have paid for, like envelopes, postage and such, unlike my monthly phone service.

Spam? I check that on my own time... and if it is that intrusive, I can dump my free email accounts. ~But~ I do believe (as arguments have stated above) SPAM costs money, and in the long run it isn't the spammers that are going to be paying for it.

The telemarketers rights NEVER supercede mine when I am in the comfort and privacy of MY own home. I could care less how they feel about the no call list.
