Because knowing who's purchasing our politicians is tyranny? Currently, the Left in this country has sort of a Hitler Youth-esque quality about people who hold differing political beliefs. In a decade, that may shift the other way. Who knows? I get it, there is no penumbral right to privacy unless you're talking about terminating some unborn kid's life. Irregardless, "knowing who's purchasing our politicians" serves very little purpose because at the end of the day, while it is illegal to purchase a politician, it appears to happen frequently and no one ever fucking goes to jail for it. That's why I believe in smaller government. If the government has nothing to sell, the market for politicians will dry up.

Speaking of internets, a friend of mines kid just got arrested for DDoS'ing the Marion School districts network.

Blah, blah, blah. At the end of the day, the government needs but one statute to "regulate" the internet from a consumer perspective. Clause (a) - definitions Clause (b) - each ISP shall provide a representation to each subscriber to its service of the minimum speed the subscriber will receive. Clause (c) - each ISP, other than during a force majeure event, shall deliver or cause to be delivered, connectivity to the internet that complies with the minimum speed representation set forth in clause (b) at least 99.9% of the time. Clause (d) - failure to comply with the speed representation or uptime requirement set forth in clause (c) above in any given month shall entitle the subscriber to free internet for the relevant month. There's honestly like 20 fucking guys in the private practice FCC bar who understand what the fuck is buried in the USC and CFR that suddenly will apply to the interwebs. Easements and shit for competing fiber lines should be a local issue because if you're rolling U-Verse and are happy with it, there is no fucking way you should have to cede your land to the liberal fascists so some fuck can trench your god damned yard. The ISPs lie like a motherfucker on speeds and they should have their feet held to the fire on minimum speeds and uptime, but they should not precluded from bartering with some content providers for higher speeds. No customer is made worse off if he pays for and has a steady 25 MB/sec download speed and it gets boosted to 50 MB/sec when he uses Netflix. The flaw in your argument is a functional rational congress.

This all sounds familiar.... Tweets. A week after the head of the Federal Communications Commission said he wants to apply strong rules on Internet providers, a Republican strategy is emerging to undermine the proposal. The Republicans' new strategy looks much like the old: Argue that the FCC's proposed rules will stifle investment, hurt innovation and raise prices for consumers. FCC Commissioner Ajit Pai, a Republican, blasted the draft regulations as overly "interventionist" and "a gift to trial lawyers" in a rare news conference Tuesday. But the game plan also comes with a twist: Critics will seek to tie the net neutrality proposal -- which aims to ban the blocking or slowing of Internet traffic -- to President Obama. The White House, they say, inappropriately pushed an independent agency to consider far more aggressive regulations than what it had initially proposed. The two-pronged assault on the administration will be louder and far more combative than anything previously seen from conservatives on the issue, officials from inside and outside the agency say. "It's going to be Benghazi all over again," said Harold Feld, senior vice president of the consumer group Public Knowledge. The analogy isn't far off. In recent days, Senate and House Republicans have demanded the FCC turn over all correspondence between the agency and the White House on net neutrality, in an effort to uncover evidence of illegal coordination. And Nevada Republican Dean Heller, a member of the Senate committee that oversees the FCC, has introduced a bill that would force the FCC to reveal its draft net neutrality regulations weeks before they're scheduled to be made public at the agency's Feb. 26 monthly meeting. www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-switch/wp/2015/02/10/republicans-are-about-to-benghazi-all-over-again-on-net-neutrality/?tid=rssfeed

I haven't seen so much conservative butt hurt on FB in a long long time.. Not since the passing of ObamaCare. Their corporate masters are pissed, and they are paid by them to be even more pissed. Now AT&T and Verizon can't do this. You know that this was further down their pipeline.

Tweets. Do you realize that Comcast, Verizon, AT&T/etc have all been receiving Title II grants to build out this infrastructure? Hell, they admit they are by accepting these grants. They get those grants, promise to build out and improve and then drag their feet, and FUCK, ESTONIA has better quality internet than we have. Seriously. FUCKING ESTONIA. There are no new fee's nor new taxes being applied here. Not the USF fees to help rural buildout. Nothing. You are seriously fucked up in your knowledge about Net Neutrality and what it means. Net Neutrality is the same as the first amendment. That didn't bar you from stupid shit, it protects you so you can spout stupid shit daily. You are so fucked in the head, and you will never realize it Tweets. You have listened to far too much Rush, Glenn Beck, Faux News and Drudge report. You do realize that the two dissenting have deep ties to those ISP's? This weird looking fuck was nominated by Obama. Did Obama fuck up with that? Wheeler has deep ties into ISP's and how they work and up until recently wasn't convinced that this was the right path. And Ajit Pai, that lil fuck has deep ties to Verizon. Yea, like he's really looking out for the consumer. He's bought and paid for. Also, Verizon is mad. arstechnica.com/business/2015/02/verizon-issues-furious-response-to-fcc-in-morse-code-dated-1934/Super mad! And they fucked themselves by suing back in 2010 to overturn the earlier net neutrality rules which were much less strict. Basically the judge said, that since they didn't use title II in the earlier ruling they had no choice but to overturn it. Well, with this ruling, that obstacle is gone and Verizon has to sleep in the bed that they made. There will be lawsuits, but they'll be very difficult to overturn this time. And with Obama's veto pen, no way will congress pass a law to usurp this decision.

Are you against the 1st amendment because it regulates free speech? That is the argument that you are making Tweets. Real victory and freedom will come with allowing "last mile unbundling". Of course, the comcasts, verizons, and Time Warner's of this country are very much against it here in the US, although they thrive providing service in Europe because of this. Why are they? Why should they when they have monopolies in many cities/neighborhoods/etc. Hell, in London you can get broadband that is on par with what we have here for less than $10 a month. Why? Because of competition and the last mile. Want to know how much they pay in taxes for that shit? ZERO. In those tax heavy heathen socialist countries they don't do that.

It's funny because Tweeter's an elderly dipshit. Keeping the internet EXACTLY how it is now? That's a government takeover.
The Republican opposition has shown time and time again, that they are only concerned with Obama failing. It's almost impossible to take them seriously.

In my case my premiums have doubled since Obamasuck was passed, deductibles have been raised about four times what they were, around here people are finding it harder to find doctors who'll take the cheap-ass policies they bought through the "exchange." Yeah, it has worked out real well. As far as the world ending because the Kenyan Socialist was elected twice, that remains to be seen... How much did they go up from when Clinton was in office to when Bush left? I bet they more than doubled. And the doubling is price has more to do with the insurance companies continued fleecing of the people, and the poor who cannot afford health insurance and not paying hospital bills. Fuck you, I got mine. That's the Republican motto.
