National No-Call List

            
             "The commission remains committed and determined to defend the choices of the American people" (Hughes). That coming from FCC chairman Michael Powell who is right in the middle of a debate in which many Americans have taken serious interest too. A heated debate is raging throughout the country right now, involving almost every household and American consumer. This is one debate that has gone through the hands of the FCC many times and even ended up in state courts. This war waging between big time companies and your every day American Joe is the one over the National Do-Not Call list. While the telemarketing companies complain that their first amendment right of free speech is being taken away, the opposing party claims that it's the peoples right to decide if they want to be called at their place of residence. It is my belief that the Do-Not Call list is a positive thing for all American consumers. .
             However, these telemarketing companies have clever ways into tricking the everyday American into opening themselves up to the phone calls even if they are on the do-not call list. Some will send surveys in the mail and if you"re lucky enough to be one of those who fill them out and not read the fine print, then you"ll have automatically just signed a waiver for the call list. .
             This is just another deceptive way the telemarketing companies are trying their pitch, which obviously needs some adjustments. The companies may also try to say that their rights are being violated, however most Americans have agreed that if they are paying for the phone bill, then they should decide who they want calling. Some might tell you to look at all of the jobs that will be lost in the telemarketing industry. However, the industry has been dropping in number for years so in essence this is only speeding up the process. .
             This national No-Call list is a win-win for all American consumers who have been frustrated with these annoying phone calls.
