common sense tell us: if we legalize spam, *every* company will do it.
we end up getting thousands of email a day. 
by the way: the world is biiger than the USA. In other parts
of the world you have to pay more for getting junk email,
most of it specific to the USA. I get also a lot of "adult" offers,
but the spammer has no idea if I'm over 18 or not. 
or in which culture i am.

> right to free speech
