why are you so convinced that in this ONE CASE the free market can't improve everything for everyone?


II’m a free market guy and skeptical of NN what the hell are you talking about? Maybe I misread you but in thought you were arguing that NN didn’t matter because the future is wireless (I agree with that btw)

comcast is dead salmon. why are you ignoring that wireless is the future of our internet and we already have about a dozen or more choices in major metro areas.


You seem to be having a different argument. I ask again wouldn’t NN (which I oppose) affect wireless too?

I think when it passed in 2015 1 of the things they looked at was the TMobile free music offer and MetroPCS offerings free YouTube streaming.

they sure did.

yet its odd these are INCENTIVES over the status quo yet the NN faggots want us to believe just the opposite will happen.

i love how the NN argument is 100% that we will pay more..not less.

Slap them in the face with the truth and they STILL regurgitate the "it's the ISPs fault" emotional bullshite they were spoon fed. It's like they don't even read a counter argument.

to be fair comcast didnt help matters by being such a shitty company.

this is what happens when you run crying to the government to prop you up.

heaven forbid they actually have to compete & put the CUSTOMER FIRST because they have real competition.

instead of competing on internet capabilities when google came to town they whined about shite like google moving their cable box on the poles and shut down the rollout. and the local governments let them.

again, dont blame comcast. sooner or later they'll be filing chapter-11 like kodak and blockbuster unless their fix their shitty product.

Doesn't matter who you blame, as long as your solution isn't to throw government at a government problem.

The spirit of which is to protect people from tyranny. Where does lobbyists paying politicians millions of dollars to get their way fit into that equation exactly?

FWIW, they deny access because they are mostly in the pockets of Big Cable now

hell Big Cable stops governments from even creating their own ISPs


Ok… so that is established.


Why would the solution to this problem be to give the ISPs a bigger, badder, more powerful group of baws to have in their pockets?
