Do Not Call
The Supreme Court has let stand a decision to allow the Federal Do Not Call list. I was always torn about the list. Even though it was always obvious that the law is constitutional and just to me, it seemed like this was not the sort of thing the Federal Government was for.
I have a free home phone line but never use it and have not received a telemarketing call in years. I might feel differently it I got them nightly. I also once worked in sales for about two years and could never bring myself to do unsolicited calls even though I knew a few people who made decent money that way. I knew how annoying those calls were and after a few minutes of trying I could not do it anymore. And from what I understand about do not call lists, my former industry is exempt because you had to have a state license to sell what I was selling and most do not call lists exempt calls from state licensed people.
