Question CAN-SPAM rules Unfair to "Legitimate" business?

I recently completed my own study of how the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 has affected my online business and my email in box.... very interesting results as follows:

I have tracked the amount of SPAM (not conforming to the Act’s guidelines) received in my email accounts over the past 30 days. My results are as follows:

TOTAL Non-Conforming SPAM received 7/5/06 thru 8/4/06:
(Deceptive, Fraudulent or Unfair SPAM)

Hotmail Accounts: (2) 115 received
Verizon Accounts: (3) 266 received
LFCHosting Accounts: (4) 161 received
TOTAL = 542 SPAM emails received over the past 30 days.

***Legitimate emails*** offering a product of service during the same 30 days = ***(-0-)***

This really ticked me off as I am a site owner attempting to grow my online business.
So...I created/mailed a letter to my Senators and Representatives...
I have created a web page with all the information and the letter if you have an interest in viewing it.... and .... helping to "Level the Playing Field" for all the small business owners working to grow a site.

Yes, I have tried other means of growing my business.... NONE have been worth my effort, time, or money spent.... have details if you want to see them.

I look forward to your comments... Pro or Con... I am open minded
