The state of Iowa, or better these bogus companies, take advantage of an FCC kickback supported by the US Universal Service Fund (USF), so the company generating the calls makes money out of the USF and you. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m more than sure that this isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t allowed to continue for long \u00e2\u20ac\u201d that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s really not what the USF is for!
