Um..........I revert back to my original response to you regarding your understanding of the term free market.
They think “free” market means “don’t have to pay”.

Should a person be able to demand a full page ad in a newspaper under “print neutrality”? Maybe they should demand TV stations run their shows under “broadcast neutrality”?

And quite frankly the bigger story... is congress relaxing the last vestiges of media ownership rules. You know the media companies the statists think the FCC will regulate...

But...mug net neutrality!

It's funnier than that really.

They think "free market" means "evenly distributed" market. But, um, no.

They also don't seem to understand that all of their scarrrry things are things that will tend to DRIVE future............wait for it........free market activity.

Whereas, preventing all of those things actually blunts said activity.

Basically, what they really mean is that they want a Socialist Market.

Can you imagine if you'd passed "broadcast neutrality" in 1975?

Right now in 2017, you would still have "neutrality".......but you would still only have ABC, CBS and NBC" to choose from. There would be no "free market" incentive for there to be anything else.
