As I've said before what would likely work is if every time one of us (in the US anyhow) got a junk call we immediately called our congressional and/or senate office(s) and simply said "just got another junk call! (optionally add description.)"
Doesn't work. I've been complaining both House and Senate offices every time CMS (Medicare billing arm) overcharges me $800 for my premiums. It's to the point that my elected officials will listen, then say "write a letter" (which I have done several times) and blow me off.
Nothing ever gets fixed.
BBB has told me they don't take complaints about government entities.
I was thinking more in terms of millions of calls to congressional offices per day, not individual requests for action. -- -Barry Shein Software Tool & Die | bzs@TheWorld.com | http://www.TheWorld.com Purveyors to the Trade | Voice: +1 617-STD-WRLD | 800-THE-WRLD The World: Since 1989 | A Public Information Utility | *oo*
