Things They Should Invent: let people join other countries' do not call lists

When I joined the do not call list some of my voicemail spam did drop off, so now a significant portion is taken off by that automated recording that apparently wants to lower my interest rates without bothering to tell me which card they're talking about.

According to call display these calls are coming from the States, so I tried signing up for the US do not call list. But it won't let me because my phone number isn't USian.

Why not let us join their list, and they can join our list? Or are they trying to stimulate the economy with a cross-border telemarketing industry?
