FCC Commissioner Pai Breaks Rank, Rails Against Net Neutrality
I thought the proposal
I would be very interested in seeing the proposed rules myself and am quite disturbed that they are being kept secret. I would also be curious to know exactly why Ajit Pai thinks the proposed rules would, "reduce competition and decrease consumer choice; and [will] slow broadband speeds for American consumers." I'm no more likely to believe this is the case just because he says so than I am to believe this is the correct course of ...

I pay an absurd mout monthly in the following utilities:
heating
electricity
water
sewer
cable.
It's govermental way to tax anything they can. That's proven fact.
I find the following two absurd in cost
heating
electricity
I find the following two reasonable in cost and too essential to health to leave up to chance
water
sewer
Furthermore, none of these utilities are regulated under the Communications Act of 1934. But wireline telephone services are, and I guess I'm not complaining too much about those. And apparently, neither are you.
And sense I love to say I told you so...
I told you so.
Just look at how the Republicans are handling immigration right now. They won a rather lopsided election on the promise to stop the executive amnesty and now...they have backed way off. Hmmm. Maybe because all those big donors WANT overwhelming immigration to lower wages.
The problem with having a powerful centralized government is that ALL governments can be taken over. I think most people would agree that these "evil corporations" are the problem, but it is deeper than that. The reality is that th...

Yes, this sort of thing happens a lot. But as much as I despise BIG government, I don't despise the entire notion of government, nor do I think that government always fails at everything. Until just now I have been under the impression that ISP's would be classified as common carriers under Title II of the Communications Act of 1934.
I'd be lying if I said that I've read that act in it's entirety. But I have read the pieces concerning Title II which are relative to the net neutrality debate, and a...

No one said they fail at everything. We have the best and strongest military in the world for example. However, they fail at a high percentage of what they attempt and the less they get into the better.
"But make no mistake. Whatever the outcome, these men are not idiots. They know exactly what they are doing."
lol.
As a rule of thumb, I agree. However, until recently I thought this was the exception to the rule. I am now unsure, but will reserve judgment until I know what is in these new rules.

Honestly, I am reading these for the first time. You must have posted them after I exited the debate. I am simply astonished that you are able to write in this way. If debate with you had started in this way we might have been friends. Unfortunately, this kind of post came entirely too late for my stomach, so I never saw it until now.
I haven't read it all yet, but you seem to be making some good points. I may revisit it and digest it later. If you can manage more of this, I may actually look forward to dialogue with you in the future. I doubt I will be returning that thread, but perhaps we may pick up s...

Here is a quote from the second link that is right on with what were talking about:
"I'm not 100% informed on the net neutrality debate although what I do know about it leads me to lean against it. Sometimes seeing who is for or against certain policy ideas is just as informative especially if those people have long track records that show patterns of behavior. For example, I know Obama's track record. I know his pattern of behaviors concerning what he proposes and what he actually does when granted what he asks for or takes what he wants."
Prior debate I participated in was always of the context that the FCC's proposal was wrong, not that they would do something entirely different from what they were saying.
I came to my own conclusions on the issue independently. I hadn't really thought much about classifying them as utilities until this thread

But after that I started to do some research and refine my opinions. So, by the...
