In Illinois, they tried to pass a law banning those high interest payday loans. Everything was going well until all the payday loan places, who are making lots of money off those loans, banded together into a lobby and lined some congressmen's pockets and re-election campaigns. The bill died immediately. It seems to me that the telemarketers would do the same thing if this list was an actual threat to their livelihood.
