  The thing is, almost nobody would sign-up.

  The DMA (Direct Marketing Assoc) is a powerful lobby.  They can pay to
make sure that never happens.  Now, so many people hate telemarketing calls

profitable that it would outweigh the costs of loosing the DMA.

  Invest in America -- buy a Congressman!
