Sounds like she escaped from a lunatic asylum.

This is what we are trying to define so that we have an equal playing field in all of the ways in which this infrastructure allows you to communicate,” she said

She wants us to pay a fee to the gubmint, to use "infrastructure" built by private companies, that charge customers monthly service bills, which include taxes to the gubmint.

I'm curious about something....why are my posts on the religion threads not being posted but are on other threads.

Also, I notice I am unable to send freempmail as it says my "account is too new to use this service."

The same logic could apply to taxing postings on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or sending text messages and emails.

Right now, that tax already applies to things like cable TV and satellite radio.

Also telephone, cell phones and internet service.

Can "over the air" TV tax be far behind?
I thought the &^$#*&&!!MYR% dammed swamp was being drained!!!

Including "policies" and the FCC!

There must be some way to cripple a rogue Congress.
They still think we are their slaves; we only live and work for their nourishment.
We need to get busy dealing with them!

This is beginning to look like "by any means possible."

Surround the capitol and block all exits and entrances?

I’m sure many of these same clowns are for the so-called net neutrality. What hypocrites.
