On February 27 congress will debate whether to pass Obama's Net Neutrality Law, which would give complete control of the Internet to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). If this law passes, then the Internet would be regulated, controlled and taxed by the Federal Government.

In other words, Obamacare for the Internet

And the people who crafted this legislation are using stupid, 1980's-era ideas that would never work with today's rapidly expanding Internet technology without completely crippling it.

And that's the whole point. The Internet in the United States is the last bastion of free speech on Earth. It belongs to US, not them. That's why they desperately want to seize control of it. Because once they own it, they will own us. And they would own a vast portion of the U.S. economy, because they would have power over everyone who does business over the Internet. Just like in the Third World.

But Americans, particularly the younger generations, have been paying attention to this Net Neutrality issue for months. We know that this is their sneaky way of taking away our Constitutional Right To Free Speech. And they want to stifle our creativity and innovation with excessive regulation, taxation and bureaucracy. And they want to make us pay dearly for allowing them to do it to us. Just like Obamacare.

This Net Neutrality issue will energize the youth vote in 2016 the way Obamacare energized the Tea Party. The Internet ain't broke, so don't try to fix it. And if those senile old fools in congress try, they will rue the day. We The People will see to that.

With Net Neutrality, You Can No Longer Post Here

Exactly the intent. (Can I still post that?)

Tell the telcos to stop sniffing each packet requested by their customers, and then slowing the info down/block it, if it is a competitor. You know, the way it’s been done for 30+ years. Real simple.

But the telcos refuse to keep on adhering to the same protocols/processes that have made the Internet what it is today.

Why aren’t you mad at the telcos for basically attempting to destroy the Internet, and forcing the governments hand?

One of the FCC commissioners was on (can’t remember which radio show) but he is sounding the alarm and AT&T is really upset and I think he said that AT&T is planning to sue.

The Internet Ain’t Broke, So Don’t Try To Fix It

Our health care system wasn’t broke either but that didn’t stop them.

There is nothing that the progressive mind can’t “improve and fix”.

This paragraph is a classic example of muddled thinking, incoherent in the way it is structured.
Who is "they?"

The paragraph refers to three separate entities, or groups : the Younger Generation, they (by inference, never explicitly identified) is presumably the government or the bureaucracy which may refer to the executive branch, or any of its created mini-executive branches which all individually or collective have co-opted the other two branches of government.

Any of the current bureaucracies (mini executive branches) can now create laws, establish new taxes, ignore the Constitutional defined duties of government and, like the original "Executive Branch" create or ignore legitimate Constitutional limits of power with impunity.

And getting away with it!

What is no longer in any doubt whatsoever is that the internet is the only remaining glue that the rest of us who are neither members of the "executive" departments, or the Hydra that the Executive Departments have become, or the related bureaucracies, without which the rest of us will be totally unable to do anything to resist that "Total Transformation of the United States of America."

Taxing the productive into impotence, and eliminating the only means to communicate and remain organized pretty much defines the ugly place where the "takers" and the totalitarians want us, the working, net taxpaying Americans, to enter, and just shut up.

Always use the enemy's resources as best you can, in this case, scroll down here and use their 'key players' dropdown box to find info on your state and then use the links here to contact your state reps!

Also, please note two things:

A: How they have coached their argument in the simple, easy-to-understand meme of 'our team internet' versus 'team big cable.' IOW, anti-capitalism, the favored argument of socialists and communists worldwide!

B: Their allies. Some of which I don't know why they side with these traitors, unless they just jumped onto the internet-destroying bandwagon thoughtlessly, which wouldn't surprise me given the low intelligence level programmed into them by the public education system they are the unwitting victims of...

But, I digress--CONTACT YOUR REPS NOW! TIME GROWS SHORT AND EVERY MESSAGE AND MINUTE WASTED COUNTS! Thanks for your time!

‘With Net Neutrality, You Can No Longer Post Here’

That is precisely the reason the government is pushing for it so hard: they want to stifle political dissent.

And, once again, Obama don’t need no steenkin congress.
