Can you name 1 benefit to the American consumers on removing net neutrality?
Upholding capitalism.
Less government regulation over private companies.
All this argument will do is eventually make the internet a public utility...then we all win.
Real talk. You have to see where this is ideology overcoming logic. There are places where free markets are awesome and there are places where socialism is necessary. This "frick the government I want people with money in charge" attitude is dangerous.
Yeah government control sucks but it helps sometimes too. We can't have police, fire departments and all kinds of other important things without a state.
Try and think about this instead of spouting mantras like "regulations bad". You're a thinking person, think.

indeed, if you believe that free competition is good then you should support NN, because without it a few large companies will be able to distort the enormous number of other markets that depend on a neutral playing field
the decision is:
a) do we want a few rules directed at a tiny number of oligarchical corporations, or
b) do we want to see distortion in the thousands of other markets that depend on the internet for their businesses (this is tigerdroppings btw)
