    this was a pretty interesting back read. the idea that the internet is *not* essential to our society/economy looks even sillier now than it did just 2 years ago.

    I guess is it a utility is the heart of the question.

    Re: Net Neutrality

    I stupidly went to the comments on a Fox News article, that was surprisingly even-keeled about it, just to see how right-wingers would justify it. And basically all I saw was Obama did it, so we have to get rid of it.

    1. Reversal of obama policy
    2. Triggers liberals
    3. Allows congressmen and corporations to make more money
    4. Allows for control of information

    Win win win win for the administration. not hard to understand

    not sure why this isn’t in the trump thread though

    Re: Net Neutrality

    It shouldn't be in the Trump thread because corporatism is bi-partisan.

    Plenty of examples of the revolving door between industry and government regulatory agencies throughout the past 40 years, why attempt to paint it as something unique to Trump?

    See bum grabber Bush in 1988 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7Dw_aSbkDg
    Obama in 2007 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LpBW5G2FWTc (look at his appointments of Islam Siddiqui, Michael Taylor and Tom Vilsack)

    Meredith Attwell-Baker, Dr. Julie Gerberding, no shortage of examples throughout any presidency.

    Given this is about Ajit and the FCC, of course it's in the Net Neutrality thread.

    it’s something the administration is doing for political reasons, and people are for/against it for political reasons

    Re: Net Neutrality

    Yea...seeing as Trump has the same arguments/tact as the average internet commenter on every other issue, it's very safe to assume the average internet commenter reason for supporting the deregulation is Trump's, as well. Also, it's why he appointed the guy.

    Re: Net Neutrality

    I am glad the issue is staying with this thread instead of going in the Trump thread, but not necessarily for the reasons of bi-partisanship. I rarely have the mental energy to go in there so I am glad to have it being discussed here without having to sift through the talk about his other shenanigans or just missing it altogether because of my current usual avoidance of the thread.
