Obama Wants to Ease Way for Debt Collectors to Call Cellphones

The change "is expected to provide substantial increases in collections, particularly as an increasing share of households no longer have landlines and rely instead on cellphones," the administration wrote recently. The little-noticed recommendation would apply only to cases in which money is owed the government, and is tucked into the mammoth $3 trillion deficit-reduction plan the president submitted to Congress.

Despite the claim, the administration has not yet developed an estimate of how much the government would collect, and critics reject the logic behind the recommendation.

"Enabling robo-calls (to cellphones) is just going to lead to more harassment and abuse, and it's not going to help the government collect more money," said Lauren Saunders of the Boston-based National Consumer Law Center. "People aren't paying their student loans because they can't find a job."

Obama is the President and is loved by millions of Americans. I'm sure all his supporters are okay with this.
 
"The little-noticed recommendation would apply only to cases in which money is owed the government"

No way! Money owed the government? That's white people! White people owe the government money. Now, I could go along with this if it allowed corporations to harass people on their cell phones, because that would be mostly credit card companies calling dead beat black people who spend all their money on iphones and don't pay their bills.

In summary: Allowing corporations to harass people who owe them money, yes. Allowing the government to harass people who owe them money, no.

What?

Let debt collectors send snail mail... It should be impossible to collect money that anybody has agreed to pay. Didn't you see the demands of the "occupiers"? All debt is supposed to be written off, there's no turning back now.
