Comments:

Make no concessions to the Direct Marketing Association on this issue and permit NO further allowances to telemarketers on the obvious ruse of any so-called "established relationship"--they've got more than enough loopholes through which to INTRUDE themselves already! Frankly, we don't want to hear ANYTHING from telemarketers at our telephone numbers AT ALL--ANYTIME--whether from live representatives or pre-recorded messengers! PERIOD! All they'll ever receive from us in return are the RUDEST possible responses. So kindly KEEP THE DO NOT CALL REGISTRY INTACT AS IT IS! Better still, START RESORTING TO THE TOKEN GESTURE OF THE REGISTRY TO ACTUALLY ENFORCE REAL SANCTIONS AGAINST THE MOST OBSTINATE VIOLATORS REPORTED!!!! That means in the end: ACT TO DO SOMETHING TO ACTUALLY EARN THOSE EXORBITANT AND OVER-INFLATED FEDERAL PAYCHECKS FOR ONCE!!!!
