First I want to add another reason pre-mades will stand around at start. It's to get an idea of what the PUGs are going to do. Sometimes if you start off they will follow, but often times you have some that are going their own way no matter what and sometimes it's best to just stick with the group.

I would love to use my awesome headset for more than just surround sound, but PGI has neglected to include in game VOIP. TS doesn't solve my problem because I don't have three freinds to play this with, and my irregular play hours (Australian times zone for a start) make it difficult to join a corp.
Plenty of TS servers out there that are open to the public. No Guts, No Galaxy is the biggest, but there is a thread in the New Players section that lists House and open Merc servers.
Also as others mentioned, there are Merc units that are not limited by region. DHB has many non-NA players. Also, it's not like you have to have a 4 man to drop. You can drop with just 1 friend....

Honest to god PGI/devs/ has to be some of the dimwitted people I have ever not known this topic has been going on for 2 years because PGI will not split the queues where premades have there own lobby's and private matches and PUGS only have the current MM/ELO system.You would think by now PGI would get the picture but im afraid with all the thousands of good ideas and topics and posts they still wander in the darkness going what shall we do now? Its not the premades fault or the pugs fault its PGI/devs fault.
P.S Plus if there are so many redundant topics and posts on subjects its because nothing on these topics and posts ever change.And truly I see less and less new players on the servers and more of the same players which means the total population and player base is shrinking because PGI is unwilling to listen to reason.
Ever thought that maybe it's because this isn't meant to be a typical shooter? Once CW arrives, those things would be simply a sideshow, and take away players from main point of the game. Splitting up the user base is a bad thing.
Also, why not put forth a little effort? There are solutions out there, but over and over again we see posts like yours where all the blame is placed on PGI because they didn't hand it to you. Take some responsibility and make it better instead of just complaining about it.
