And not having it means that Comcast gets to decide that if you don't fork over however much they think they can demand, you don't get any bits at all.

I'm not a big fan of unnecessary oversight, but when you've got the choice between a group that *might* screw you that you have a shot at throwing out of office and changing, and a group that *will* screw you that you can't do anything about, I'd rather go with the government.

Amazing! I'm AGAINST the so-called "Net Neutrality" for exactly the same reason.

But the group that *will* screw you is the government. In everything that government does these days, it’s the people, it’s you and I who are being screwed.

The EPA screws us. The DoE, the DOJ, IRS, the fed........

It would be easier to list governmental agencies that *DONT* screw us over. And right now, I can’t think of one.

Right now, even if Comcast *MIGHT* screw me over, I can sue them.

I can’t sue the government. You can’t either.
