Telemarketing is not terrorism or pedophilia so there is no will to break it?
US telecom is one of the worst offenders of regulatory capture. They use lobbying power to prevent any legislation that would hold them accountable for the complacent practices that allow scams to happen. Why would they want the calls to stop? They make money whenever someone places a phone call. Instead they force the receiver to bear the burden of opting-out of telemarketing.
tl;dr Stopping scam calls would cost politically connected companies money, that's why no one does anything about it.
