I like this part:
"Google and others who are cheering now may not like where this ends up when, say, religious right groups start demanding FCC content regulations during the next GOP Administration."
All you libs who want government control and intervention, consider that the GOP will soon again be running the show. The solution is less government, hence more freedom!

There is a big difference between anarchy and constitutional republic with limited power allocated to the federal government. You pay any attention in your high school american history class? Or maybe your school stopped teaching it (many have). Anyway, go read some of the federalist papers...clif wrote:such a simplistic fallacy. isn't law enforcement a direct indicator of the limits on freedom and the most unassailable government institution?

For me, this is a pretty complicated matter. I'm all for net neutrality, and it's a shame we need rules for net neutrality.
I want less government intervention and much more free market, so my stance on net neutrality is a break from that. I think a free market would demand net neutrality and we would not need government regulations to force it upon the providers. However, that sector is full of monopolies and most are set up that way because of regulations. When the government has regulated an industry into local monopolies like these, they are much less affected by what the consumer wants and/or needs.
How many choices for high speed internet access do you have? Typically three types with advantages and disadvantages: cable, DSL, satellite. You'll typically find one cable provider and one DSL provider in one area. You can choose between the two different service types, but you will not have a choice of providers within that type. Satellite is a different monster that has multiple providers, different packages, and they are generally very costly compared to the other services.
So without choices, without competition, sadly, I am for more intervention in this area.
Complete deregulation could be an option but even then I don't believe you would see much competition. It's a very expensive infrastructure to develop and I would say a company would be priced out of business before they could even get off the ground...

Sure is a lot of fun while you're doing it...
I agree. Everything is a crisis when it comes to Maobama.
He shoves a bailout through that HAS TO HAPPEN NOW...in order for it to sit on his desk for a few days while he's off vacationing.
How many absolute deadlines were set for the emergency that is healthcare? So the law can take effect in two years?
The only true deadline, and this administration knows it, is next january when they lose even more seats in congress...possibly both majorities...
